Naruto's Twin Sister (Naruto Fanfiction)

Chapter 1 ~Magic Noodle Transportation~ (Very Long Chapter :D)

Rinn's POV

I'm currently walking home from school. A long and boring day without doing anything. Anyway, when I arrived home, I went straight to my sofa and didn't even bother changing my clothes nor removing my shoes.

"Time to watch Naruto!!" I exclaimed cheerfully to myself while waiting for the anime series to start. This is the only time of the day when I get excited and totally interested. I hope there's an entertainment show or commercial or something with Naruto and the other anime characters in it before the episode for today.

As if on cue, my favorite character, Deidara, suddenly appeared on the screen.

"OH MY FUDGE!! THIS'LL BE THE MOST AWESOME COMMERCIAL EVER!!! THANKS FOR PICKING ONE OF MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS, KISHIMOTO OR WHO OR WHATEVER MADE THAT!! YOU'VE GOT AN AWESOME TASTE!" I ended up yelling with imaginary stars in my eyes.

"Hiya!! Do you want to meet me in person hm?" Deidara asked, and of course being me, I didn't bother thinking what to say. My excitement and mouth acted first.

"Of course, Deidei!" I literally shouted at him and immediately felt like a kid afterwards. I mean, I just yelled at my lifeless television!! But it was fun anyway! I'll continue playing and going along with this!!

And of course!! My favorite character asking me if I want to meet him?! That was the dumbest question I had ever heard!! I mean, who wouldn't want to meet their favorite anime character in real life?! No one, of course!! Even though it is just a some kind of show in a television, if you're a real fan of something or someone, doing that would be normal and just a simple instinct!! Yeah! I'm totally nuts when it comes to my favorites!!

My head suddenly spinned though, and I was like WTF. That was What The Fudge.

"Good hm..." He said in a different voice, like cold and empty, or something like that. A weird grin appeared on his face and HEY!! THAT WAS NORMAL BECAUSE HE'S ONE OF THE BAD GUYS!! But....

"Oh fudge!" That was the last thing I could say before realizing I fudged something up, and unexpectedly blacked out a second later.

(~^.^)~(~^.^)~(~^.^)~(~^.^)~(~^.^)~

I woke up in a some kind of forest. Wait a minute.... Forest?! Maybe someone kidnapped me and maybe that kidnapper used my poor television as a distraction and he did something to make me unconscious at the same time!! How rude! Or maybe he mixed a sleeping pill or a some kind of drug in my last meal? How was that even possible? I'm quite aware of my surroundings and also aware of the things I eat!! But most importantly, why did he bring me here? In a forest? I've seen in television shows and heard from other people how kidnappers work. They bring their victims in an old house or old warehouse or old building or something old like that, and they even tie or lock them up or both!! They don't leave their victims in open areas like this! No, maybe I'm wrong!! Maybe I was not kidnapped and maybe Deidei really meant what he said, but that can't be possible, right?!

Ugh... That's what a Narutard would normally think after watching an awesome commercial of his/her favorite anime series with his/her favorite characters in it, passing out for some unknown reasons, and waking up in a totally different place.

I closed my eyes again, still lying on the ground. I released a long sigh and suddenly heard Naruto's voice. Wait.... Naruto?! Nahh, I must probably be dreaming or maybe hearing things. Oh yeah! Maybe there's a Narutard, like me, watching an episode using an IPad or tablet or something nearby and that was where Naruto's voice came from!! Yeah.... Wait, I can also hear footsteps. A person maybe? Running towards me?

"Woah! Hey miss! Wake up!" A boy yelled while shaking me by the shoulders. He must be the one watching an episode, but his voice is so familiar.

"Naruto! What are you doing there- Who is that?" Asked another voice. That voice is also fami-- Did he say Naruto?! I suddenly opened my eyes and saw an animated Naruto, sitting beside an animated Iruka. Am I sitting in front of a huge 3D screen with awesome realistic features or maybe inside a room with 3D screens in all sides?!!

(O___O)

Minutes passed, and I'm still staring at them, but then the animated Iruka decided to break the awesome-yet-awkward silence.

"H-Hi there... I haven't seen you around here. Are you a new student or something?" My throat is dry and I cannot talk well.

"N-N-No... I-I am n-not a n-new stude-ent." Oh shoot! That was worse than I expected!

"Oh.... If you don't mind, I would like to know your name." I gulped. Should I tell him my name? Or should I change it? Oh fudge. I'll just tell him my name. He's TRUSTWORTHY anyway.... HAHAHA!!

"I a-am Rinn,"

"Okay.....?" Oh shoot! Maybe I look suspicious!! What am I going to do?!

"Umm.... Rinn, will you come with me to the Hokage?"

"S-Sure," I knew that this would happen. I automatically stood up and followed him. Oh I see now, I'm not in a forest. This huge familiar tree was just the first thing I saw, that's why I thought I was in a forest, but the truth is, I am in the Academy, behind the tree where Naruto always spends his time.... BUT I SERIOUSLY CAN'T BELIEVE THIS. EVERY SINGLE THING AROUND ME IS ANIMATED, EVEN THE TINY PEBBLES AND DIRT AND TREE BARKS.

Iruka's POV

There is something strange about this girl. She totally looks like Naruto, like Naruto's girl version. I-I mean, she has long blonde/yellow hair like Naruto's and has lines on her face. No, those are whiskers like Naruto's, too, and that's not all, she has those eyes that show determination but not sadness. Well, Naruto's eyes show both determination and sadness, but the eyes of this girl named Rinn doesn't have a tint of sadness in them.

Right now, I am walking towards the huge building where Hokage-sama is with Rinn trailing behind me.

"We are here."

I looked at the place where Rinn should be, but found no one.

"Where did that girl go?" I ended up asking myself, and sighed later on.

"I hope she isn't a troublemaker like Naruto."

Rinn's POV

On the way to the building where the Hokage is, Naruto told me to come with him in a playful manner.

He still wears those goggles, so it means, I'm only in the beginning of the story. I can still prevent Haku and Zabuza from dying.

I didn't hesitate to come with Naruto, and a few minutes later, a familiar place stood in front of us. Ichiraku Ramen. Yum!

"I haven't seen you around here and I bet you are new! So, I guess you haven't tasted the most delicious ramen here in our place yet! But you will now!" Woah! I can't believe that I am able to taste the ramen from the famous ramen stand where Naruto buys! But there is one problem though.

"That is very kind of you, Naruto! But I don't have ryos or any money to start with."

"Don't worry, Rinn-chan! I will treat you for today! But only one bowl because I also don't have that much money to buy more." He said while looking at his cute wallet. You know? The frog? The wallet he uses? Oh never mind.

"Thank you, Naruto-kun! I mean Naruto-chan!" He laughed at that, and soon, I joined him. He ordered two bowls for both of us, and we waited for them.

"Here you go!" Teuchi said while serving us the most delicious food in the whole wide anime world. We don't have the same flavor or type, or whatever you call it, though.

"Itadakimasu!" Naruto and I said at the same time while breaking our chopsticks in halves. Then, we ate our ramen like there's no tomorrow.

"Hmm... Naruto, who is that new friend of yours?" Teuchi asked while pointing a finger at me.

"Oh! That is Rinn-chan! Actually, she is new here, and I am treating her to some ramen, just to see if she likes it as well."

"Naruto, I don't like it." I said seriously while putting my chopsticks inside the empty bowl in front of me.

Teuchi and Naruto obviously couldn't believe what I told them, but I exclaimed something after that.

"Naruto! I don't like this ramen! *long dramatic pause* I love it!" I shouted like a crazy woman while giving them a peace sign. They released a sigh of relief.

"You could give me a heart attack, you know!" Naruto shouted while pointing an accusing finger at me.

"Since you said that and since you are new here, I'll give you two more bowls of ramen!" Teuchi said, and I was like.... Woah!!

"Hey, how about me?!" Naruto yelled at Teuchi.

"Sorry but only for the new regular customer!"

"Don't worry, Naruto! I will treat you tomorrow! That's a promise! Believe it!" I said, giving him a thumbs-up. He was staring at me for some reason, and a few minutes later, it hit me. I used his catch-phrase or whatever you call it. I'm seriously getting amused by this because I subconsciously do the weird things I always do in the living room after I watch several episodes of Naruto back when I was still in my real world. For example, I used to pretend to be Naruto and randomly say his catch-phrase every time I talk, and pretend to be a random ninja and swing my plastic kunai knife while doing some weird and stupid ninja moves, breaking some things in the living room of mine in the process, and pretend to be some of my favorite characters by copying how they act and speak in the show.

"That is a promise! Okay?!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Yep! And I am not a person who breaks promises!"

"Good!"

Then, I started to dig in again while Naruto is simply watching me with a cute pout in the sidelines.

"Aww! I can't resist my friend's awesome face!" I said while handing him the second bowl of ramen.

"Do you really mean it??" Naruto asked me while hesitating to get the bowl of ramen.

"Of course, I do! I don't want to be selfish and eat two bowls of ramen when someone is making the cute-puppy face and just watching beside me while I eat! Take it!" Woah! That was..... Oh nothing.

"Arigatou, Rinn-chan!" He said while taking the bowl of ramen and immediately eating it.

"No worries, Naruto!" I said while finishing my bowl of ramen.

I haven't noticed the sunset a while ago, and now, it's already night. Naruto and I continued talking the moment we finished our ramen. Wait a minute, I forgot something, but I can't put a finger on it. Hmmm....

Iruka's POV

Ugh! I've been searching the whole village now! Where is she?! Naruto was with me when I saw her, so she must be with Naruto now. But where would Naruto bring her? What are the places I haven't checked yet? The academy? No, it's too dark for them to go roaming in there, and besides, Naruto hates studying so why even bother going there, right? Maybe in front of it? Beside the tree with the swing? Ugh. I'll check later because that's too far from here. Maybe in his house? No, he doesn't know her that much and she won't probably agree going to the house of a boy she just met, even if the mentioned boy's along with her. Training grounds? Naahh, Naruto is too lazy for that and it's also far from here. That leaves Ichiraku Ramen! Perfect. That's the nearest place here where Naruto usually goes to, and besides, it's already dinner time. If they're not in there, I'll check my other options later.

I ran towards the ramen stand and saw two people sitting and chatting there.

"What a coincidence...." I said to myself while walking slowly towards them.

Rinn's POV

I forgot something! But what?? Hmmm... Suddenly, a hand placed itself on my shoulder, interrupting my thoughts. I looked at the man who was holding me on the shoulder and frowned. The paper stuff, which serves as Ichiraku Ramen's curtain thing, is blocking the man's face. All I know is.... The man's either a Jounin or Chunin, thanks to the vest he's currently wearing.

"Hey!! Watch where you put that stinky hand of yo--!" I was cut off when that man said something.

"Rinn..." I gulped down a bit of my nervousness as beads of sweat trickled down my face. I totally forgot about him.

"I-I mean, hi there, Iruka! What are you doing here outside? It's kinda' late, you know," I laughed nervously after that. I know that I am in a big trouble right now. Well, fudge this.

"Rinn, I have been searching the whole village just to find you. What were you thinking? Did a thought of you roaming around the village without the permission of Hokage-sama enter your mind?" He asked in a calm voice, but I know that he is already angry, pissed off and disappointed on the inside. I'm not that dumb, you know.

"Well......" I looked at Naruto for help. I hope he understands me even though I don't literally tell him my problem. It's pretty obvious! Come on!!

Naruto's POV

I just watched the two and....

"Well......" Rinn trailed off and looked at me with a.... Weird face? She looks constipated. Oh! I get it!! She is asking for help to make a some kind of reason..... I guess.

"I-Iruka-sensei! It was my mistake! I told her to come with me so that I could treat her to some ramen! It wasn't her fault!" I said, or more like shouted, at him. Well, it was the truth anyway.

"What are you saying, Naruto?" Iruka-sensei asked me with a deep and creepy voice.

"Go home... NOW,"

"B-But I can't just leave Rinn-chan here!" Iruka-sensei released a long sigh.

"Don't worry about her. I will talk to Hokage-sama and find a place where she can stay, okay? So, go home, Naruto. It's getting late. We still have classes tomorrow."

I sighed. Okay then, I have no other choice.

"Okay." I stood up and slowly walked towards the direction of my apartment.

"Goodbye, Rinn-chan! See you tomorrow!" I exclaimed from the distance while waving my hand.

"Goodbye, Naruto! Thanks for the treat!" After hearing that, I saw a cute smile on her face, and as a response, I did the same. Then, I ran towards my home, excited for tomorrow.

Rinn's POV

After the Goodbye fest with Naruto, Iruka brought me to the Hokage, and this time, he held my arm, just to make sure I don't escape again. I released a yawn and my eyes started to close, making me stumble over a rock on my way. I feel so sleeeeeeeepy. What a day. My brain couldn't process what happened and couldn't figure anything out. Maybe I should try thinking tomorrow, after I get an awesome rest.

"Woah, be careful, Rinn. I see that you are exhausted and tired. Don't worry, you will be able to sleep later when we find a place where you can stay, okay?" He told me with concern in his voice.

"Okay," I released another yawn, and then, after a few minutes of climbing the fudgin' endless stairs, we entered the Hokage's officeoom.

"So, you are the girl named Rinn, am I right?" The Hokage asked. I just nodded, for I don't have much energy to talk and my eyelids are already drooping. Scratch that. This is my moment. A sigh escaped my mouth, and with all of my remaining strength, I stated the things I wanted to tell and explain to him.

"Hokage-sama, can I be a part of your village now? I would love to stay here, and if possible, help protect this village, too. I want to study in the Academy, along with my friend, Naruto, and be a ninja someday."

"I know that this must be like.... A crazy thing, you know, me appearing out of nowhere, and suddenly having the desire to be a ninja even though I am a complete stranger to you. But please, give me the chance to prove myself that I can protect this village, along with Naruto. I keep my word, and if you agree, I need some few things before I start, I need a place to stay in here and a few coins to spend on some necessary things for my daily life, just for the meantime because once I find a job or something, I'll be able to buy my own needs without the help of anyone, completely independent,"

After my speech, I saw Iruka and the Hokage staring at me, astonished. A few seconds later, the Hokage cleared his throat. I'm not really that formal but in order to gain the Hokage's trust, I have to choose the right words and be wise. Even though, I'm still not yet sure if this is real or not, I have to go with the flow and still think things out based on the current situation.

"So, you are willing to protect and risk your life for this village, and I can see that you're quite determined yourself, but before I can let you do that, I would like to know more about you first." Okay. What will I say now? My favorite food? My age? My hobby?

Should I say that I am from a different world or something? Naahh, that will fudge him out. I sighed and decided to talk again.

"As you already know, I'm Rinn. Actually, I don't know my last name. I don't have a family nor a home from where I came from, and I would like to start a new life here." Most of that was a lie because I actually have a last name and it's Kagame. Well, that's what was written on my homeroom teacher's attendance list. Yeah. It's kind of japanese-like and I seriously don't know why. I mean, I knew I was born in America!! That was what my aunt told me!

"I never knew what my parents' names are or what they look like. They just left me to my aunt, and then, she was the one who took care of me from that day on. Now, I should probably be eleven years old. Actually, I also don't know my exact birthday. I just know my age because I started counting the years that have passed ever since my aunt began taking care of me. I heard my age from her when she was talking with someone about taking care of me or something during her first day with me, that's why. I wouldn't bother asking someone about my birthday if all she ever did her best was try and get rid of me. Anyway, I don't know why or how I appeared in this place. In our country, there is no such thing as ninja or shinobi or Jounin or anything like that."

The Hokage was staring at me AGAIN, but now with sadness in his eyes. Before he could even talk though, I said something.

"And Hokage-sama, I am willing to live here in this village, and I don't want to come back to where I came from. I will forget my past and face my future, my new future and the present time,"

"I am willing to step forward and become a ninja, a powerful one. So please, let me study with Naruto in the Academy, and don't worry if the graduation is near. I am a fast learner and can start studying tomorrow."

"Okay then. If you really want to be a ninja, you can start tomorrow by participating in class, and hmm.... Where can you stay? I'm afraid we don't have any vacant house or room here. All are occupied," Then what?! I like to shout that at his face but no.

I need to keep calm. I just don't want to sleep in the streets. Besides, I'm tired and exhausted, that's why I'm a bit of a hot-headed tonight.

"Where can I stay then?" I asked him while looking at Iruka, showing him my worn-out face.

"You can stay with someone you know here." Yeeees! I can stay with Naruto! THIS IS SERIOUSLY SO FUDGIN' AWESOME!!

"Umm.... Is it fine if I stay with Naruto?" The Hokage stared at me again... For the third fudgin' time. Ugh.

"Yes, you can stay with him, if he is willing to let you," Yeah right.

"Of course he will let me, I'm his friend, after all," I released another yawn.

"Okay then, but Rinn, before you leave, I would like to ask you something," Ask me something? What can that possibly be?

"What is it, Hokage-sama?"

"Why do you look like Naruto so much?" I stared at him for a moment. Did I hear him right? Maybe I should clean my ears everyday.

"How come? I have long black hair and green eyes. How come I look like him? He has blond hair and beautiful blue eyes. There's no way we'd look the same. Excuse me, Hokage-sama, but I think you should go out and give your eyes a check."

The Hokage thought for a second, then, he spoke again.

"No, Rinn. I'm quite sure that I have a good eyesight. You have long blonde hair, blue eyes and whiskers, too, like Naruto. Are you somehow related to him?" I'm too tired to argue with the old man!

So, I just shrugged, leaving the Hokage in his own thoughts.

"If you don't mind, Hokage-sama, I would like to get some sleep. I still need to wake up early tomorrow for school."

"Okay then, you may go." I looked at Iruka, no.... I stared at him for a few minutes.

Iruka's POV

Is there something she wants me to do? Why is she staring at me? Then, realization hit me like a huge wave crashing onto me, making me drown. Not literally, of course. I see now.

"Come on, Rinn, I'll take you to Naruto's place." Then, I led her. We walked downstairs and when she exited the building.....

"Yeah! Finally, I can sleeeeeep now!"

A second later, she passed out. I caught her before she hits the ground, and I have no choice but to carry her to Naruto's house. A short laughter escaped my mouth when I saw her face. She seems like in heaven, finally having the rest she wanted.

Minutes later......

"Naruto! Naruto! Open the door please!" I shouted while knocking on his door. Then, I heard a loud crash inside. "Naruto! Is everything alright there?" There was no answer, and to my surprise, the door suddenly opened, the light did too. I saw Naruto's room afterwards. It was a huge mess, so as himself. He's a mess too.

"Sorry if I disturbed your beauty sleep but this girl will stay with you from now on."

Naruto's POV

A knock then a shout then a knock again. Ugh! I was about to walk towards the door when I suddenly tripped on the ramen cups, making me crash on the floor. I stood up and opened the door to see Iruka-sensei carrying a girl. I couldn't see her face that much because it's dark. To be able to, I opened the lights.

The girl is Rinn! "Sorry if I disturbed your beauty sleep but this girl will stay with you from now on." Iruka-sensei said and my sleepiness immediately disappeared.

"Yeah! That will be totally awesome! Wait a minute. Why are you carrying her, sensei?"

"She passed out after talking to the Hokage because of sleepiness and getting too exhausted. Now, where can I place her?"

Okay, where? Where?! Aha! I know where! I fixed my bed in a minute. "Place her here, Iruka-sensei!" I said while pointing at my bed.

"But where will you sleep, Naruto?"

"Oh don't worry about me, sensei!" He just shrugged and put Rinn on my bed.

"Well, I will be going now. Goodnight." Then, he left. I fixed my room, putting all my dirty clothes in the basket where they should be, throwing all the ramen cups and other garbages in the trash can, fixing all the clean clothes and putting it in my cabinet/drawer and finally putting my extra mattress on the floor, there, I closed my eyes and slept.

-THE NEXT DAY/MORNING-

I woke up just to see Rinn in a messy state. The blankets are almost on the floor. The pillow was.... Well..... She is hugging it at the current moment, and her body is about to fall because half of it is already out of the bed. Something caught my attention more than her weird situation though. Her shirt was lifted up, showing her stomach/belly. She has the same mark as mine. The mark in my belly/stomach. We share the same thing. But why? What does this mean? Anyway, I slowly fixed her shirt, pulling it down to cover her revealed skin. I slowly woke her up a second later.

Rinn's POV

I woke up when, to my surprise, Naruto shook me. My guess was based on the person's voice.

"Wake up, Rinn! We have something to do!" I opened one eye and saw the said boy looking at me. This is kind of making me feel awesome. I mean, I remember immediately falling asleep just after I exited Hokage dude's place and then, I would suddenly wake up in Naruto's place?! That was really fudgin' awesome!!

"What is it?" He grinned and pointed at the can of paint he's holding. I already knew what he meant by that. I smirked afterwards, and looked at him, my smirk disappearing and turning into a frown just after it appeared.

"How come you are already dressed up and completely ready to roll? Why didn't you wake me up just after you woke up as well?" Why you!!

"I did, but you are too sleepy and tired soo......"

"I decided to get ready first before I wake you up again."

"Okay....? But you must wait for me while I get ready!"

"Of course!" I brushed my hair with a random hair brush I found in the drawers, and teeth using the spare toothbrush Naruto handed me before he went out. I also took a bath and decided to borrow one of Naruto's jumpsuit (the orange one, obviously). Then, when I was all ready..... I looked at the mirror.

What the?

"I look like Naruto." I whispered to myself. Anyway, not wanting to waste any more time, I went out of the apartment where Naruto was waiting, and he expectedly looked at me, surprised.

"Why are you wearing my clothes?!" He doesn't seem mad at me.

"Well, I don't have any spare clothes yet, so, I borrowed yours first, just for the meantime." I mean, I wouldn't want to wear those dirty white clothes of mine. Yep. White clothes. I don't know why I ended up in this place wearing only my inner clothes, which are a white sleeveless shirt and a pair of white knee-length shorts. Maybe someone removed my school uniform, also my shoes and socks. Did I mention that I was wearing nothing for my footwear? Well, now I did. And hey, to my luck, I found a pair of ninja sandals under Naruto's bed minutes ago.

"Okay! We look like twins now!"

I looked at him and then, at myself.

"Yeah, you are right! This is awesome!" I exclaimed while the two of us looked at each other.

"Come here, Rinn. This will be the plan." Then, he told me what to do and I grinned at that.

Iruka's POV

'Where are those two knuckle-heads?' I released a long sigh. Maybe they are going to be late. Suddenly, two Jounins/Chunins (or whatever their ranks are) opened the door, surprising me.

"It's Naruto!" They said, annoying me again. 'What did Naruto do this time?' I asked myself.

"I need to leave for the meantime! Don't make any trouble while I'm gone!" I shouted at my students and ran, following the two ninjas afterwards.

Rinn's POV

We just finished painting the Hokage Faces and boy, it was a huge mess! I kept on laughing while ninjas chase us. Me and Naruto did a high-five! And when we saw Iruka-sensei, we hid via camouflage and yeah, that camouflage was the worst. The truth is that.... I obviously know what's about to happen or the future in this world because I already watched these episodes over and over back in my world, but still, even though I know the flow of this story, I don't get too serious and just simply going along with what Naruto is doing..... Even if it's the dumbest of dumbs. It's fun, you know.

We were laughing when Iruka-sensei expectedly caught us.

"Rinn! Naruto! What do you think you were doing?!" He shouted at us, but we just laughed quietly, totally ignoring him. He tied us with a thick rope and brought us to the academy. When we arrived, he threw us to the floor, but it wasn't that hard. Good thing, he managed to carry the both of us. Anyway, that was when I saw the whole class staring at me. They totally look like the ones from the series!! Oh my fudgin' fudge!

"Why is there a girl-version of Naruto, Iruka-sensei?! A stupid clone of his, perhaps?!" Some students asked and I just laughed at that like the crazy person I am. Although, the stupid part was a bit offending. At the present time, I heard some students mumbling.

"But when did he even manage to make a clone? Did he improve?"

"Well, that's shocking."

"It's probably just one of his clones that transformed into a girl. That's for sure." That made me mad. How can you be so confident, huh?!

"Hey you! I'm not a clone! I'm a real person, you fudgin' fudger! You're gonna' pay for what you said the time I get free from this rope!" And then, I kept on struggling and struggling just to get free.

Dummy! Naruto can't even make a proper clone in his state, right?! Psh! Dummies everywhere!!

Iruka's POV

"Okay, listen up, class! We have a new student here! Her name is Rinn! And wait a minute, Rinn, why are you wearing Naruto's clothes?" I end up asking her. Curiosity's bugging me.

"I obviously still don't have any clothes to wear yet! And of course, I need to take a bath! So, I borrowed his clothes for the meantime! " She said it like a whisper, but a little too loud. I sighed and then, I told my students that we are doing the transformation technique again. That's Naruto and Rinn's punishment for being such hard-headed brats.

Sasuke's POV

Who is she? Why does she look like Naruto so much? Is she somehow related to Naruto? Those questions keep repeating and repeating in my mind while I made the technique. At first, I hesitated to believe if it's his clone because that's just not possible, I mean, he failed many times already because of that simple technique and it would be a miracle if he managed to do it as a stupid trick just to blow our minds, and also if that girl is a real person because her appearance resembles Naruto too much that I can hardly believe her existence. I looked at her once more just to see Naruto teaching her the handsigns for the technique. I released a sigh. I shouldn't stick my nose in other people's business, but I'm just too curious.

I'll know soon.

Rinn's POV

Okay! Now, I know! Naruto taught me how his unique technique works. Do you remember the technique he used to make Iruka-sensei's nose bleed? I laughed remembering what I watched a long time ago. Anyway, Naruto turned into a naked girl and that girl looks like me, but I'm younger and prettier! Just kidding! I chuckled at Naruto's technique. That was exactly what I watched.

But more realistic. Now, it's my turn. I did the handsigns and....

"Transform!"

I turned into a naked guy! More like a naked Naruto, but has some kind of clouds covering his private parts, just like Naruto's technique! The real Naruto laughed at me and Iruka-sensei yelled at me.... As expected!!

Nice experience! The whole class burst out laughing except the emo duck-butt and the lazy pineapple-head. You know who those fudgers are. Then, minutes later of me and Naruto doing nothing but making trouble, it's time for us to go home.

"Oh wait! Naruto! Stay right here, okay? I will be back! I just need to get something." I left him there beside his favorite tree in front of the academy and he just sat on the swing.

"Okay!" He shouted from the distance while I was running towards the building where the Hokage is.

"Hokage-sama!" I smashed the door open just to see the Hokage and other familiar Jounins staring at me.

"Sorry! But I need to talk to the Hokage first! Umm, can I?" I looked at them. Woah! I saw Kakashi, Kurenai, Gai, and Asuma for real! Awesome! So fudgin' awesome!!

Yeah, awesome, embarassing myself in front of them. Anyway, the Hokage cleared his throat, snapping me out of my thoughts. "What is it, Rinn?"

..... Silence .......

"Ummm.... Could they uhh..... Go out for a minute?" The Hokage sighed and told them to step out first. They slowly walked, heading out, with their eyes on me. I can feel myself melting.

Oh my fudge! What are they?! Fudgin' turtles?! They are so slow! It's like.... They are observing me or something! Or maybe they're teasing me?! Nahh! I know that I should be amazed and all because I saw them, but seriously?! I can't help but get pissed off, thanks to their good-for-nothing speed and gaze!!

I released a long sigh.

"Please, if you don't mind, I'm in a hurry. Someone's waiting for me and I can't afford to take my time, doing unnecessary things. Fudgin' slowpokes."

I whispered the last part to myself, of course, but I think Kakashi heard me because he narrowed his eyes, or should I say eye, while staring at me. That's expected of him, I mean, he's very observant, right? However, he's still an old man. Anyway, I just shrugged and gave him my best fake smile. When they were all gone, I looked at the Hokage.

"Hokage-sama, can you please uhh.... Give me a few ryos so I can umm.... Start my new life?" I inwardly sighed. It was worse than I thought. I'm sweating so fudgin' hard at this very moment! The old man just stared at me. Okay?

"Uhh.... I'm kinda' in a hurry, so..."

"Rinn, if you don't mind, can you please lift your shirt up just enough for me to see your stomach?" I was shocked at that. Why is he interested on my stomach? Maybe he wants to see if I'm compatible for being a model who wears midriff shirts or crop tops? I have no interest in being one, but that would be cool and awesome. I mean, I have a slim body. But hey, talk about change of topics.

"What for?"

"I just want to see something."

"Okay....?" That sounded more like a question than an answer but I followed the Hokage anyway and lifted my shirt (I'm wearing a white shirt and have my orange jacket zipped open ever since I wore these clothes) just enough for him to see my sto- What is this? I was even more surprised, seeing a familiar mark on my stomach/belly. This is scary but awesome.

"Just as I thought."

I pulled my shirt down and didn't even bother asking what that mark means. Maybe next time or some other day when I'm not in a hurry.

"Hokage-sama! Please, I need ryos right now and I'm really in a hurry!" Oops! Kinda' disrespectful! But whatever.

"Okay, here you go." He handed me a bag of ryos and I immediately took it, more like snatched it away from him.

"Thanks!" And I ran away. That was kinda' disrespectful again.

Anyway, I ran and ran towards the tree where I left Naruto and half-expectedly saw him there with a sad face.... No... More like a lonely one.

"Naruto-chan!!!!" I shouted while waving my hand. The visible loneliness in his face suddenly disappeared and was replaced by a grin. He is happy now. He is happy to see me. Aww! That's touching!

"H-Hey *pants* Naruto *pants*...."

I ran so fast! That's why I don't have any air in my lungs anymore, just kidding. Of course, a little was still left. Anyway, Naruto has a worried face now and he kept on patting my back.

"Woah! Woah! Calm down! Why did you even run so fast?" I caught my breath first before speaking.

"I thought you left because I was taking too long to return here."

"That is ridiculous! I wouldn't leave and you know that!"

I sighed. Assuming hurts.

"Yeah. Anyway, I promised you something, right?" He looked at me with narrowed eyes, probably trying to remember what I said before. I held his hand and started to walk while Naruto just trailed behind me. We are back. The Ichiraku Ramen. Now, it's in front of us.

"Oh yeah! You will treat me today, right?" Naruto asked me.

"Yep, you got it." Then, I ordered a bowl of ramen for him and of course, I ordered one for myself, too!

-MINUTES LATER-

Naruto ate 5 bowls of ramen and I ate 3. I admit that those were delicious and all, but I remember hearing that people should eat less before going to bed because if they do, the food in their stomach won't be properly digested and will give them a higher chance of getting fat. Better safe than sorry. Besides, it's already night time.

"Naruto, do you think that's enough for today? I still have to do something. Wanna' come with me?" I paid Teuchi and then, we walked towards the store where I can buy clothes. Naruto agreed seeing that I need to go and shop for those.

Naruto's POV

Now, I'm seating here on a bench, waiting for her to come out of the dressing room. Minutes later, she came out and.... Wow.

"What do you think? Does this suit me?" She asked. Rinn is now wearing a cute orange longsleeves with a pair of matching shorts. It has a blue (one-inch wide) lining at the end of the sleeve. It also has a high collar, which reaches her chin. It has a blue lining on the part where the collar reaches her chin as well. The shorts also have a blue lining at the end. Those clothes show her body shape because of the black (three-inch wide) belt/strap on her waist. Her boots are cute, too. Those are blue and stop at her knees. There's a good two-inch space between her shorts and boots. Her hands are also covered in bandages.

"It looks awesome! Believe it!" I told her while giving her a thumbs-up.

"Great! 'Cause I already want to get out of this place." She mumbled the last part to herself, but I heard it and laughed.

Then, she paid for all the things she bought and we went home afterwards.

Rinn's POV

When we arrived home, I changed my clothes and went to sleep, but noticed something before doing so.

"Are you okay sleeping there, Naruto?" I asked my poor friend who is currently on the floor. Actually, he is on a mattress.

"I'm fine here." Naruto said with drooping eyes.

"Go to sleep, Rinn-chan." I yawned and answered with a simple....

"Okay."

Then, we slept.

-THE NEXT MORNING-

Me and Naruto woke up at the same time and did our morning routine. Wait a minute..... Today is the day! Today, we will be having our forehead protector! Today, we are going to be official Leaf ninjas!! But Naruto is nervous and sad at the same time. He knows that he'll FAIL, I mean, that's what happened in the series. If only I know the handsigns, I would seriously teach him..... I'll just keep on comforting him and making him feel better by saying 'You can do it!'. Well, that's only what I can do for now.

Hours passed and hey, guess what?

Naruto isn't the only one who failed, so am I. That was an expectation because even if Naruto taught me the correct handsigns before the exams, since he doesn't know how to make a proper clone, he still couldn't teach me the right way of controlling chakra. Yep, I realized that I also have chakra, like every person here in this world, ever since I made the transformation technique or more like a prank.

Naruto sat on the swing, watching those adults who kept on muttering something about him, something bad about him, and I'm doing the same, but sitting on the ground beside Naruto instead. I heard something that made me completely mad.

"Hey look.... How cute is that? A girl comforting a monster. Maybe she is a monster like him. No wonder she seems comfortable around him and looks so much like him, don't you think?" A parent asked her friend while using a low tone, which I still managed to understand because they're glaring rudely at us without looking away. I've been observing those fudgin' parents for a long time now and those two fudgers took my attention, pissing me off the most, thanks to their nonstop insults.

I stood up and slowly walked towards that particular old lady who insulted us and halted to a stop when I did so. Then, I pointed an accusing finger at her. Call me disrespectful or what, but I will never let them insult us and get away with it just like that.

"Shut your fudgin' mouth, granny!! Or maybe you want me to do it for you 'cause you're too old and weak to do it yourself, you old hag!!!" I can sense Naruto's surprised face even without looking at him.

"Where are your manners?! You are talking to me and I'm older than you so watch your language!" I laughed crazily at that, making all the people look at me, even my classmates. I'm insane and I know it~!!

THIS. IS. WAR.

"You are the one who should watch her language, granny! Calling a boy a monster?! How childish and immature you are! I only hear those cruel and rude words from children and you *laughs*..... I couldn't believe that I heard it from you! From you! And you are saying that I'm a monster too?! Oh please!! Just because I'm the friend of what you, idiots, think and ridiculously believe a monster, you would judge me as well?! That was just so stupid and pathetic of you!! And wanting some respect from me?! A word of advice, granny! Learn to respect us first before you expect to gain the same from us!! You, granny, take a look at that child on the swing again, you call him a monster?! I couldn't believe that you just did!! How twisted was that?! You are the one who should been called a monster! Seriously!! Picking on children! Not just some ordinary kids! A lonely and defenseless kid who did everything to have a real friend and for people to notice him and support him for who he really is, and the only kid who decided to stay beside him in both good and bad times and through the hardships in life and support him for the rest of our years together! You and your brainless minions ruined his life and are nothing but obstacles who kept on mentally and emotionally destroying him! And now, he is doing everything just for you to recognize and encourage him! He said that he will be a Hokage someday and I believed him! You... All of you! All of you are the ones who should been called a monster! All of you should be the ones to suffer and feel this way!" I felt my eyes wet and before I even know it, I immediately held Naruto's hand and dragged him home.

Naruto's POV

After that unexpected event, I saw her crying and running towards me. She held my hand and dragged me home.

When we arrived, Rinn let go of me and went straight to her/my bed. Then, she cried her eyes out. I slowly sat on the bed and carefully lifted her face.

"Rinn, don't cry." I don't know what to say. I don't know how to make her feel better. I don't know how to comfort her. I don't know anything at all.

"I'm so cruel." I heard her say, but it was just merely a whisper.

"I-I wasn't like that. I-I didn't have a foul mouth before. I-I was totally out of control. I snapped and let my emotions take over m-me." I sighed. I know that, Rinn.

"Shhh.... Stop crying, Rinn. It's okay now, don't worry." She just sniffed and sniffed, tears still flowing down her face.... While me, what? Doing nothing but hugging her and telling her to stop crying. I'm such a baka.

Actually, I heard every word she said awhile ago because she was already yelling her throat out. As she was doing that, Mizuki talked to me. It was unexpected. He suddenly appeared beside me and invited me to go with him because he had something to say, but I insisted not to leave Rinn alone, so we stayed there instead.

Oh yes, I still need to do something. At the moment, I can feel Rinn's steady breathing and noticed that she is already asleep. I slowly placed her head on the pillow, careful not to wake her up.

Then, I went to the forest. I have to do something.

Rinn's POV

I suddenly woke up. That's strange. I thought someone woke me up on purpose, but when I opened my eyes, there was no one here. Where's Naruto? Oh yeah! I remember the story!! He will get the scroll tonight! That's a bad thing, right? Oh shoot!

I immediately stood up and went to the forest. Where can I find him?? Ugh.

"Naruto!!!"

I heard a voice and recognized it as Iruka-sensei's. I immediately dashed towards the direction where it came from afterwards. Then, I saw the huge shuriken (I forgot the name of that thing), thrown by Mizuki and is, at this very moment, going straight to.....

"Naruto!!!" I shouted, and the huge shuriken pierced my back. Then, there comes the blood. Ugh. My blood doesn't taste good at all. It tastes so fudgin' horrible. Anyway, I coughed up blood and it splattered on Naruto's cheek. Oops. Sorry! I know that it was so disgusting and filthy of me to do that, but I'm very sorry!! It was an accident!

I realized what I did, which was being a human shield for Naruto at the nick of time, and hey, I didn't know that I'm incredibly fast!

"Naruto, did you see that? I'm incredibly fast!" But Naruto had a face full of fear. Come on, where's the fun in that?

"Rinn!" I heard Iruka-sensei say, or more like yell.

What's this? Why can't I feel the pain in my back? I mean, I didn't mind it awhile ago because I thought that it'll suddenly appear after a few seconds, like a side effect, but no. Until now, I can't feel it at all. It feels weird because it's just simply like.... A cold metal stuck in my back, but my flesh in that part is numb, you know? I can't feel the pain at all!! It feels like my flesh is nothing but a gellatin, and doesn't have any pain receptor. I really feel so weirdly uncomfortable.

"So, you are the one who made a speech a while ago, Rinn right?" Mizuki said. Should I get offended or not?

I stood up and they were all astonished to see me standing up that fast in my current condition, and became even more surprised when I removed, more like yanked, the huge shuriken from my back without getting hurt nor showing any kind of pain. My face is full of determination with a hint of confusion instead.

"Yes, I'm the one who made that so-called speech, Mizuki." I said, using a dead and serious voice, which made Naruto tremble. Then, I threw the huge shuriken, aiming straight at Mizuki.

"Die!" I yelled at him.

"Too slow." He jumped like Spiderman and landed on the ground, making the huge shuriken hit the trunk of the tree. I growled. Ugh. He should be thankful because I still don't know how to properly throw a shuriken. I just copied their way and style of throwing it. Actually, back when I was still in the real world, I kept on pretending to be a ninja and also practiced aiming a shuriken at someone, even a kunai knife, but of course, those were only made of plastic and not metal. Since the ones they're using here in Naruto's world are completely made of metal, it was kind of hard. It was heavy, you know!! Anyway, I decided to climb one of the trees and sit on the branch, and that is what I did. My head is currently and unexpectedly spinning, that's why, and I see..... What's that? If I'm not mistaken, why is a pink unicorn throwing up rainbows on one of the branches in front of me? Ugh. What the fudge is happening?

"Go and help your brother, Rinn."

"Help him."

What the? Where did that voice come from? Why was it awfully familiar? And the fudge? I don't have a brother. Heck! I don't have any sibling at all! I didn't realize that I just passed out, and now, I'm dreaming, more like having a nightmare. I mean, there is a pink unicorn throwing up rainbows in front of me! And I'm riding.... A large squirrel? I don't remember agreeing on sitting on poor overgrown Sandy Cheeks' back and riding her!! Maybe I watched too many cartoons and this is my punishment! I mean, Agnes' unicorn puking all over the place is just crazy!!

O____O

Squirreeeel! They are so fluffy! Wait, that was supposed to be Agnes' unicorn!!

Anywaaaaays.... Gummy bears are currently riding their gummy worms and are chasing us. They're huge!! What's happening?! And then, the squirrel, more like an overgrown Sandy Cheeks, turned into a.... A fish?! An oily fish?! Dammit'!! I like squirrels more than stinkin' fishes! I mean, it's not like I hate those fishes in Bikini Bottom and that reporter tuna or something! I just don't want 'em if they're not underwater!! They're fudgin' stinky as heck!! I'm riding that stinky fish and is getting chased by a huge army of gummy bears and worms, totally normal. Then, suddenly, the stinkin' fish jumped off the imaginary cliff, bringing ME with it. Wait, where did that cliff even come from?!

After that, all I see is black. Suddenly, the Fourth Hokage appeared in front of me. Wait what?! *nosebleeds* He's so handsome!! Maybe because I fangirl too much, that's why, he is now visiting me in my nightmare!! Oh my fudge! *drools*

"Go and help your brother, Rinn."

"Help him." Minato-kun *insert Rinn with hearts as eyes* gave me a warm smile and then, to my disappointment, he disappeared, leaving me and my own thoughts.

I woke up. Then, I remembered my dream-s***h-nightmare. I don't know who my sweetheart *insert Rinn with a massive nosebleed and hearts as eyes* was talking about, but there is one person that needs to be saved right at this very moment and that's Naruto. I'll save him. HAHAHA!! Acting like an awesome hero, eh? Even though I don't know how to fight or battle someone in real life, I can still probably save Naruto's butt and be the awesome hero of the day because I'm awesome!! I can't feel any pain anyway so it'll be alright!! A part of my brain yelled. That was one heck of a sarcasm!! Nice!

I saw Mizuki not so far away and decided to help Naruto, I mean, save him. How many times did I say that already?? I think that it would be embarrassing if I would keep on blabbering that I would save him but couldn't manage to at the end of the day, right?

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Both of us said at the same time, and that was what made me shock. I made the handsigns like I was totally familiar of it, even if I was really not, and many me and Naruto appeared. They seem like thousands!! Iruka-sensei was shocked to see this and so are we!! I mean, I don't know any kind of technique, except for the transformation technique, which I already forgot how to do, and I also forgot the handsigns. Those were difficult to memorize, you know!!

Before I even know it, there he is, Mizuki, lying on the ground, unconscious. Hah! Good for him! Thank Sandy Cheeks and her oversized squirrel friends and kill the fishes! Just kidding. Fishes are so beautiful but troublesome at the same time. Well, I guess he didn't have much luck. I saw Naruto and Iruka-sensei, then, all of our clones disappeared with a poof. I ran towards Naruto and gave him one of my bone-crushing hugs.

"Ack! Can't.... Breathe!" Naruto gasped and I let my brother free. Wait. Brother?! What am I thinking?! He is not my brother! I don't have one! Although, it feels like he is really my brother because we look the same and have the exact appearance of each other. This is confusing. Ugh.

The sun is already rising and the three of us are like dolls that had been tortured.

"Rinn, how did you learn that jutsu?" Iruka-sensei suddenly asked me and I gulped. Should I tell him the truth that I didn't know how I managed to do it or just make something up and say that I managed to because I'm awesome??

"I-I don't know myself." He released a long sigh. Okay. I ended up saying the truth.

"Since you two proved yourselves to me, I'm letting you pass." He told us with a warm smile.

'3...2...1...' and I knew what that meant, so, me and Naruto glomped on Iruka-sensei at the same time, making the three of us fall on the ground with a thud. Iruka-sensei gave the both of us each a forehead protector, making the two of us official ninjas of the Leaf!

After the three of us were fully healed and full of energy again, we all went to the academy, but before we did that, Iruka-sensei treated us some ramen! So, as I said before, we went to the academy and I held Naruto's hand. He gave a little squeeze, knowing that I'm a little nervous. Of course, I'm nervous! The whole class, along with their parents, heard my fudgin' speech! Ugh. I hid behind Naruto when we entered the room, along with Iruka-sensei.

Sasuke's POV

I saw Rinn and the annoying brat enter the room, but something is different about Rinn. She is afraid? Scared? Oh, maybe nervous. I heard the speech she made, all of it. Rinn is hiding behind Naruto and her eyes are showing anxiety at the moment.

My thoughts were cut off when those annoying fangirls asked me if they could seat beside me. I saw Naruto getting mad in the corner of my eye and to my surprise, he suddenly sat on my desk, glaring daggers at me, and well, I did the same, but even deadlier. Then, the unexpected happened.

The boy sitting on the chair in front of me suddenly stood up, accidentally pushing Naruto forward and..... Well, you know what happened next. Awkward silence. I immediately spat the germs out of my mouth and Naruto did the same. Then, the fangirls started to crack their knuckles and kept on shouting that Naruto stole my first kiss. Disgusting.

I saw Rinn spreading her arms wide, somehow, protecting Naruto.

"Don't you even dare lay a single finger on my brother." Emphasizing the word brother. Wait..... Brother?!

I stared at Rinn and looked if she is joking but no, she is so serious. I can almost feel her determination, anger, and protection all at the same time. What's the meaning of this? Are they really related to each other?

Rinn's POV

I don't know where that word came from. Brother? Maybe I said that again because he is almost like a brother to me. I mean, our resemblance to each other. But obviously, there is still something different.

"Get out of our way, you ugly lady!" I heard one of the fangirls yell.

And that hit the nerve.

"Who are you calling an ugly lady? You fat, worthless, mindless, and ugly pig!" I shouted at her and that made Naruto laugh a little. Burn, you fat baka.

"What are you even doing here?! You are not a ninja! So get out!" Oh, is she really that dumb? I feel bad for her future boyfriend. The real thing is.... Will someone even date her? Hahahaha!!

"Dummy, can't you see this?" I bragged while pointing at the forehead protector hanging on my neck.

"I'm an official ninja of the Leaf now. And you, even though you wear that forehead protector of yours, you only care about your looks and appearance, and your mind just keeps on creating dumb ways to attract Sasuke and nothing else. You are not a real ninja and I can even prove it to you. If you win a FIGHT against me, well, congratulations, you are a true ninja, but if you LOSE and did nothing but punch, kick, slap, and pull my hair, well, bye bye! Brat." Woah! Another speech! Well, maybe if I'm mad, I can make dozens of speeches. Awesome power! I mentally laughed while thinking that.

The room went silent.

"Ugh. So quiet." I told myself, then, I decided to say something. How about a little prank, you fudgers?

"*wears a panicking face* Iruka-sensei is coming!!! Everybody get back in your proper seats!!!" All of the students went back to their seats except me, who is currently laughing so hard that I already fell on the floor while holding my stomach.

"O-Ouch.... That hurts."I said, still holding my aching stomach.

"You, guys, are so funny!" I exclaimed at them.

Wait a minute, Iruka-sensei was with us when we entered the room, right? I didn't even notice him go out. I'm such a baka. Anyway, I kinda' felt his presence and suddenly stood back up, dusting the invisible dust from my clothes. I pulled Naruto's arm, causing him to fall on his seat, and the only vaccant seat close to me is beside Sasuke. So, I had no other choice but to seat beside him. Seconds later. Iruka-sensei opened the door just to see us all quiet and sitted on our seats. Anyway, Naruto is in my right side and Sasuke is in my left. I'm obviously in the middle.

Iruka's POV

I'm quite shock to see my students quiet and properly sitted on their seats when I entered the room. After that scene, I told them the teams and stuffs like that.

"Team 7! Naruto Uzumaki! Sakura Haruno!" I saw Naruto stand up in joy while Sakura bang her head on her desk saying 'I'm doomed', but I decided to ignore it and continue my thing.

"Sasuke Uchiha." Then, they did the exact opposite of what they did awhile ago. I was about to say the next team when Rinn's hand suddenly raised itself.

"What about me?? I would love to be in Naruto's team!" Rinn shouted.

"Sorry, but you are a part of another team." I said calmly, but I think that made her more upset.

"What?! I want to be in Naruto's team! You can't make me join a different team! I need to be with him!" She yelled at me again. What a spoiled brat.

"Rinn, where are your manners?! Don't you even dare raise your voice at me! It's written here and I can't do a thing about it! Go and complain to the Hokage if you want!" I said, or more like yelled, completely losing control. She ticked me off.

"S-Sorry, Rinn." I ended up whispering to myself.

I saw her eyes showing... Determination. She's really pushing it.

"I will.... I WILL!" She exclaimed and then, in a blink of an eye, she dashed out, slamming the door behind and leaving us all staring at nothing.

After a minute, I decided to talk.

"Oka-!" But I was cut off when I saw Rinn, holding a paper in front of my face.

"There! The Hokage said that I can be in Naruto's team! I-I mean...."

Long pause...

"H-Here. Please read this, Iruka-sensei. A letter from Hokage-sama." I was shocked at the sudden change of attitude but I took the paper from her hand and started to read it.

It stated that Rinn can be a part of Team 7 and was signed by the Hokage. Anyway, I decided to announce it to the class.

"Okay then, there will be a sudden change and Rinn will be a part of Team 7."

Rinn's POV

I heard him say it calmly and....

"YEAH!! Did you hear that, Naruto!? I'll be a part of Team 7 now!" Then, I did my happy dance.

"Iruka-sensei, why do a brilliant ninja like me in a team with a baka like him?!" I heard Naruto shout while pointing an accusing finger at Sasuke. I like this part~!!

"Naruto, he is the Top 1 in this class and you are the exact opposite. I'm sure that the Hokage made every team BALANCED." I heard Iruka-sensei say. Hahahahaha!! Burn!

"Just get out of my way, baka." Sasuke muttered, just enough for us to hear. Before Naruto could complain again though, I decided to talk.

"Iruka-sensei, you can continue announcing the teams now. Sorry about Naruto." I whispered to him. Then, I went back to my seat and took a nap for a while.

-MINUTES LATER-

"Rinn, wake up." I heard Naruto say while shaking me gently. Ugh.

"Okay, okay..." I opened my eyes, just to see Kakashi-sensei open the door and as expected, the eraser fell on his head. I yawned, not even bothering to laugh at the trick Naruto made.

Yeah and you know what happens next. Kakashi-sensei and his blah blah blah. Then, we all went to the roof to introduce ourselves. I sat beside Naruto and Sasuke again. I don't want to sit beside the Pinkette, okay??

To my surprise, Kakashi-sensei pointed a finger at me.

"Okay, you first. Introduce yourself." I stared at him with narrowed eyes.

"I think you should introduce yourself first, sensei."

"Me?" No. I'm referring to the beautiful bird flying up in the sky.

"Okay. I'm Kakashi Hatake. My likes and dislikes.... I don't feel like telling you. My dreams for the future... I have many hobbies."

I yawned totally bored. He practically said only his name and nothing else.

"Then, it's your turn." Kakashi pointed a finger at me. I also heard Sakura mumble something. I sighed. This is boring.

"I'm Rinn. My likes, well, I like Ichiraku Ramen, especially when Iruka-sensei and Naruto treat me. I like Seafood Cup Noodles and Pocky, especially the chocolate-covered ones with crushed almonds. I also like ice cream, especially the Oreo or cookies-and-cream-flavored ones and except for the fruit-flavored ones. I love sweet and chocolate-flavored and Oreo-flavored things. My dislikes.... When I have to wait 3 minutes for the ramen or any kind of noodles to get ready. I also hate vegetables. But above all, I despise liars and egoistic people so much. Hobbies.... To eat ramen and compare ramen cups and eat many more sweet things while I watch my favorite shows. My dream for the future is to become a powerful ninja and to be able to support Naruto's dream."

Silence..... "Okay, your turn." Kakashi said while pointing a finger at Naruto.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki! My likes, dislikes and hobbies are the same as Rinn's, except for the things which aren't related to ramen, and my dream for the future is to become the Hokage and help Rinn become a powerful ninja."

Woah! That made my heart skip a beat. He cares about me! Oh! I like him to be my big brother! But that's not possible. Pretending's good though.

"Okay. It's your turn now." Kakashi said while pointing at the Pinkette.

"I'm Sakura Haruno. My likes, well, the person I like is.... *looks at Sasuke* *blushes*.... My hobbies.... *looks at Sasuke* *blushes*.... My dreams for the future.... *looks at Sasuke* *blushes* *squeals*..." That was horrible.

"And your dislikes?" Kakashi-sensei asked Sakura.

"Naruto and Rinn!" Sakura shouted. Good to hear. The feeling's mutual, Pinkette. Well, I think I should rephrase it a little.

"Ehem! I'm gonna' rephrase it a little, Sakura, for them to understand. *transforms into Sakura* I'm Sakura Haruno. My likes, well, the person I like is Sasuke Uchiha. My hobbies are stalking Sasuke and following him everywhere. My dream for the future is having a family with Sasuke. My dislikes are Naruto and Rinn."

It felt weird saying my own name. Anyway, I transformed back to myself with a poof and saw Sakura glaring daggers at me. I just shrugged her off and pointed a finger at Sasuke.

"Your turn."

"I'm Sasuke Uchiha. I hate almost everything *Rinn's thoughts: You don't hate me! You love me! ^giggles^* and there is particularly nothing I like *Rinn's thoughts: No! You like tomatoes and I'm sure of it!*. I don't have a dream *Rinn's thoughts: Yes, you do! Your dream is to have a family with Orochimaru and to have a minimum of three kids with him!*, because I will make it a reality *Rinn's thoughts: Break a leg, Ducky!*, to restore my clan and kill a certain someone *Rinn's thoughts: As if I'd let you touch my Itachi~!! Hmp!*."

I stared at him, stopping my laughter, along with others. I probably look like a retard for doing this.

"Okay! Don't make the air tense! Continue, Kakashi-sensei!" I looked at him and did a close-eyed smile. I can almost see them sweatdropping but I honestly don't care.

I decided to take a nap on Naruto's shoulder because I heard what Kakashi is going to say many times in my world already. Sooo...... *sleeps*

Naruto's POV

I noticed Rinn sleeping on my shoulder. Well, I'll just tell her what Kakashi-sensei said about the survival test we are going to have tomorrow. To my surprise, I saw Sasuke staring at Rinn and when he caught me looking at him, he looked away. Kinda' weird?

-MINUTES LATER-

I woke Rinn up because it's time for us to go home.

Rinn's POV

Naruto woke me up again and I noticed that we are the only ones on the roof. We went home a minute later.

When we arrived home, I went straight to bed, not even bothering to change my clothes or clean myself. I'm too tired even though I did nothing the whole day. I just feel so exhausted.

Naruto's POV

How can I tell Rinn what Kakashi-sensei told us? She is already asleep. AGAIN. I don't want to wake her up, that would be rude. Nahhh! It's her own problem. I changed my clothes and cleaned myself. After that, I slept on my very comfortable mattress on the floor (note the sarcasm).

-THE NEXT MORNING-

Rinn's POV

Naruto kept shaking and shaking me, telling me to wake up because we are going to be late.

"Just go on first. I'll be right behind you." I told him sleepily.

"Okay, if you say so." Then, when I heard the door being closed, I knew that Naruto left already and I, of course, went back to sleep.

-FEW HOURS LATER-

I woke up and looked at the clock. It's already 9:00 in the morning. I groggily stood up and changed my clothes. I did my morning routine and went to Ichiraku Ramen. I bought 2 bowls of ramen and then, I ate it.

I know that Kakashi-sensei told THEM not to eat breakfast because we are going to throw it up, but I already know the whole story. Soo yeah. After I ate my breakfast, I paid Teuchi and went to the training grounds where we are supposed to meet.

When I arrived....

"You're late!" Sakura and Naruto shouted at me? No. I looked behind me and saw Kakashi-sensei.

"Well, a black cat crossed my path so I ha-!" He was cut off.

"Oh enough with the excuses!" Naruto said with an I-know-it-all voice.

"Anyway....." Kakashi-sensei placed an alarm clock on the.... What do you call that? Post or something? Yeah, something like that.

"This alarm clock is set at noon and all you have to do is get a bell from me."

"Hmm.... That seems easy." I heard Naruto mutter beside me.

"You must get one bell before the time runs out to be able to pass and you need to have the intent to kill to get one. You can use any weapon as well." Awesome. Kakashi-sensei showed us the bells. Only 3 bells.

"Those who wouldn't be able to get a bell will be tied up on a post and they won't be allowed to eat their lunch while I eat mine in front of them." So evil! >.tiger handsign. Naruto was frightened again because he thought that Kakashi would attack him back with a technique or something but no....

'*gasps* That's a handsign for strong techniques!' Sakura's thoughts.

'Is he really going that far?' Sasuke's thoughts.

'Here it comes! Muahahahaha!' My thoughts. Hahahahaha!!

"Konoha's Secret Technique: Thousand Years of Death!" And you know what happens next. I burst out laughing as Naruto flew in the air and fell in the river, making a huge splash!

"N-Now, it's my t-turn." I said slowly while standing, my laughter dying down.

I decided to fight Kakashi using taijutsu and yeah, it didn't go that well because I was kicking, punching, and shouting while he just blocked, blocked and blocked. Oh! And read, of course.

"You are just like Naruto." Kakashi-sensei said with a calm voice.

"Yeah maybe!!" I said while aiming a kick at his face, but he held my foot, so I decided to punch him, but he dropped his book this time and held my hand, stopping my punch. I threw a kick at him again with my other foot, but he was too fast and kicked me first.... On the stomach, making me fly backwards and hit a tree, but it didn't hurt me one bit. The impact just surprised me.

I decided to use ninjutsu this time. Creating techniques of my own sounds fun, but I know that those won't work.

"Blood Clones!" I shouted and did the handsigns. That's weird, I don't know any ninjutsu like that. I mean, I just made that name up and suddenly thought of some handsigns, but woah!! I didn't know that it would really work!! For real! Anyway, my clones surrounded Kakashi. They also formed a circle and he's in the middle, so he is now trapped. Alright!!

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Me and my clones yelled at the same time while doing the handsigns, and we kinda' blew fireballs from our mouths, aiming those at Kakashi. He was a little shocked, but got over it pretty quickly, and jumped on one of the branches of a random tree nearby. He stood still for a while, looking at me with narrowed eyes.

My clones will not disappear unless you stab them or anything just.... Ugh.... They will disappear if you make them bleed! Asking me how I know? Well, I don't know the answer myself!! Hahahah! It's just a some kind of feeling. Now, how am I going to make them vanish?! I made 10 clones! Ugh..

I chased Kakashi and yeah. When we were far away from the river where Naruto is, the Kakashi I was chasing suddenly disappeared with a poof. A clone. How come I fell for a stupid trick like that? Anyway, I ran back towards the river and when I arrived there, I saw Kakashi-sensei being held by Naruto's clones. I immediately ran towards him with a kunai knife but....

He narrowed his eyes at me and in a split second, I'm suddenly the one in his place instead of him and the person being held by the clones Naruto made. Wait what?! Oh no. Then, Naruto punched me on the face... VERY HARD AND FULL-FORCE, making me fly backwards again, and I crashed on the ground, but didn't feel any pain.

Naruto was shocked to see me lying on the ground, wiping the blood off my face that came out from my mouth. Ack! It tastes so bad! It's like a metal or something! Nevermind. Naruto helped me stand up.

"Where is Kakashi-sensei?! I'm sorry, Rinn! He was supposed to be the one I was going to punch but he-!" I cut him off.

"Naruto, it's okay. Let's help each other and fight him." I told him.

I know that this whole bell test is about teamwork from the very beginning, so I told him to help me.

"Sure. Help me find him, Rinn." He said and I nodded.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!"

We heard a scream. It was Sakura's. I held Naruto's hand and dragged him towards the place where she is.

We saw her lying on the ground, unconscious. I did some handsigns and touched her forehead, waking her up. Okay, this is just creepingly awesome. I have no idea where this knowledge comes from but this is really cool.

"Genjutsu." I muttered just enough for the two of them to hear.

"Sakura, let's find Sasuke and help him fight Kakashi-sensei. Come on." I told her and helped her stand up. I held Naruto and Sakura's hand, dragging them where Sasuke is.

When we arrived, we saw Sasuke's head popping out from the ground. Before Sakura could even see him, I covered her eyes.

"What's wrong? Where is Sasuke-kun?" I heard her whisper to me.

"Don't scream or panic when you see Sasuke, okay?" She gulped and nodded.

I removed my hand from her eyes and knew that she would scream so, I immediately covered her mouth this time.

"I told you not to scream, Sakura!" I sighed and removed my hand from her mouth. I walked towards Sasuke and saw him glaring at me.

I sat in front of him, not that close, and there is a good 6-inch space between his face and mine.

"What do you have to say, Sasuke?" I asked him calmly with a smirk on my face. This is fun.

"Get me out of here." He said quietly just enough for only me to hear. I'll play with him for a while. It's payback anyway because his ego is so big and it keeps annoying me, which isn't a good thing.

"Well, that's not a good way to ask for help."

I stared at his annoyed face and finally, after our staring contest, he gave up and sighed.

"Okay. Please get me out of here." I just stared at him. After a good one minute, I suddenly stood up making him shock. That should be fine.

"Okay!" I said in my cheerful voice.

I did the handsigns and the unexpected happened. I saw Sasuke's shocked face and he slowly started to rise up from the ground. Slowly. Slowly. Then, his whole body is out now. Wait, I can control the ground?! Awesome!!

"Since I helped you, Sasuke, you must help us and act as a team in return. Let's fight Kakashi-sensei together." I told him with cute-puppy eyes. He just stared at me for a minute.

"Please?" I asked with pleading eyes. If he disagree, I'll seriously shove a kunai knife up his duck-like butt.

"No, all of you will just drag me down." That made me mad. Grr. But I didn't bother showing it.

"Nope, we will not. We can get the bells if we help one another!"

"But the bells are only 3!! We are 4!!" He shouted back at me.

"That is the trick!" I shouted louder than him.

"Kakashi-sensei did that on purpose because he know that by doing so, we would get it individually! He is tricking us to see if we can outwit this trick he made and be intelligent and still help one another on getting those bells even if we still need one more bell for all of us to pass!! We can't fight him and get a bell by ourselves! We need teamwork! And don't worry if there are only 3 bells! I can do something about it! We just need to help each other, Sasuke!! Why not believe me first and see the results?!" I stared at him again. I'm trying to convince him but....

"No. You can't make me. Get out of my way. You will just bring me down." I can't control it anymore! Convincing him is absurd and just a waste of time and effort!! I should've realized that earlier!

"Fine! Have it your way! You emo duck-butt!" That made him mad and he glared daggers at me. As if I care!! Hmp!

I walked towards Naruto and Sakura, kind of pissed off.

"Help me get the bells." I told them seriously. It's not a some kind of favor, it's an order. Well, for me it is. I saw Kakashi-sensei sitting on a branch reading his fudgin' book.

"Okay, here is the plan." I whispered to them and yeah. After our meeting, I used a some kind of teleportation technique and teleported, appearing behind a tree in an angle where Kakashi can't see me. I also hid my chakra.

"Get down here, Kakashi-sensei! Don't be a coward and fight us!" Well, I think that was enough. I saw Kakashi jump down from the tree.

"You want to fight me?" Kakashi asked like the dummy he is.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" I heard Naruto shout and saw hundreds of clones surrounding Kakashi-sensei. If you are wondering why Kakashi can't see me, it's because his back is facing me and behind him stands the tree where I'm currently hiding. So, I just watched them and waited for the right time to come.

I saw Sakura attacking Kakashi with a kunai knife while he makes the clones around him disappear. He is too busy now, all the clones trying to get the bells and Sakura attacking him nonstop. I teleported and appeared behind Kakashi without him noticing. One of Naruto's clones kicked Kakashi on his right leg and that made him feel a little numb and forget about the bells for a mere second, so I pulled it from his pants and teleported to the highest branch of the highest tree.

I made clones of the bells and also made it appear on Kakashi's pants. I don't know how I made that happen but yeah. It just happened. I laughed at my own silly joke and saw that Kakashi didn't notice what I did. Just perfect.

Suddenly, the alarm clock rang. Knowing that it's already time, I went to the place where the alarm is and all of us sat near the post. Wait. Why is Naruto tied up? He still managed to try and eat his lunch?! Wow. Anyway, I saw Kakashi-sensei and decided to ask him my question.

"Kakashi-sensei, why is Naruto tied up?" He looked at me with bored eyes.

"He was about to eat lunch already."

"Well, you said that those who have a bell wouldn't be tied. Naruto got one, so he shouldn't be tied on a post."

"He didn't get a bell."

"Yes, he did."

I threw each bell at Sasuke and Sakura. I cut the ropes, freeing Naruto, and gave him a bell, too.

"Each of them got a bell, leaving me, so I should be the one who is tied on a post."

I made a clone and she tied me on the post where Naruto was tied before.

"But h-how-?" I cut Kakashi off by my clone doing some handsigns and made the bells hanging on Kakashi's pants disappear with a poof.

"Those were just clones of mine, Kakashi-sensei."

"Rinn, how about you? You don't have a bell." Naruto asked me and my clone disappeared.

"Well, I don't have a bell, so I didn't pass. Only you three." Their shocked faces scolded me.

"How come?! How come you gave Sasuke a bell even though he didn't get it or even help you get it?! You should keep it for yourself!" I giggled at that, seeing Naruto's mad and concerned face.

"Naruto, he is my friend."

I saw Sasuke become a little stiff.

"He is also my teammate and of course, I'd rather let the three of you pass instead of myself. I want all of you to become powerful ninjas and fulfill your dreams." I was just making another speech. I know Kakashi will let me pass.

"B-But Rinn, I thought that we would be ninjas together?! You told me that before! Then why? Why!? Why are you leaving us like this?! Leaving me?!" Naruto yelled and I can almost see the tears in his eyes that never wanted to come out. Aww! He's so cute!

"Naruto, don't worry about me. We can still be ninjas together, right? After I study in the aca-!" He cut me off and I honestly didn't appreciate it. I hate it when I'm being cut off.

"But that would take too long!"

"Naruto, shut it." I told him seriously in creepy voice overflowing with coldness. That made him tremble a bit.

"No. She will pass. I'm sure of it." I was shocked to hear Sasuke's voice.

"We are a team, right? So, we should all be together." Sasuke said.

"Yeah! Sasuke-kun's right! We are a team and no one should be left behind!" Sakura shouted at Kakashi.

"Yes. All of them are right. I'd rather fail with Rinn than to leave her behind." Naruto said with determination in his voice. They're fluttering me *slowly blinks with beautiful eyes*.

"Same here." Sasuke said.

"Me too!" Sakura's girly voice exclaimed. Their dramas are making me cry. Anyway, back to the present time. Naruto suddenly cut the ropes, freeing me.

"We are a team!" They all said at the same time.

"You...." I heard Kakashi-sensei's cold and creepy voice, but that didn't scare me at all.

The sky darkened and thickened. Thunders roared and lightnings stroke, scaring them. How about me? Grinning like the crazy woman I am.

"You....." Kakashi repeated while the dark clouds and thunder added more scary effects.

'Just get on with it!' I thought.

"You pass." He said with a close-eyed smile.

"What?" Sakura said, more like asked.

"All of you passed. The reason why I let you pass is because you didn't let your teammate down. In the world of ninjas, those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum." I decided to take a nap on Naruto's lap because I don't want to hear those blah blah blah from Kakashi anymore. I've heard those many times already and I'm contented. Good thing, Naruto didn't mind me.

Sasuke's POV

After what I said to her awhile ago, she still gave the bell, which she worked so hard to get, to me, and even said that I'm her....Friend..? After Kakashi-sensei's speech, I saw Rinn sleeping on Naruto's lap. She looks so peaceful when she sleeps. Wait what?

Naruto's POV

I can't wake Rinn up!! She is having a nightmare! Wait, let's say a dream, but she is crying..?

"Come on, Rinn! Open your eyes! Wake up!" I shouted while shaking her. Rinn's face shows pain. I wonder what she's dreaming about.

Rinn's POV

I woke up in a forest..? But it looks like it's night already. I stood up and saw a man with black hair and blood-red eyes staring at me. He is not that far. To my surprise, he suddenly took the long sword from his back and disappeared.

"Die." Whispered a cold and creepy voice in my ear. He is behind me and I can almost feel his breath on my neck, which gives me the creeps. Then, I saw his sword through my stomach. I didn't know that he did that already because it didn't hurt at all. I coughed something up. Liquid? Blood.

"Rinn! Rinn!" Huh? Where did that voice come from?

"Wake up, Rinn!"

Sasuke's POV

I saw Naruto having a hard time waking Rinn up. She is like.... Already dead. Naruto is shaking and shaking her like today's the last day of the world. So I decided to take a closer look. I walk towards Naruto and he saw me. Wait, Rinn's crying? I sat beside Naruto and tried to wake Rinn up by shaking her gently but it's no use.

"What are you doing?" I heard the knuckle-head ask me.

"Waking her up, of course, baka." I muttered the last part to myself.

"But can't you see?! It's no use!" He shouted in my ears. Ow.

"Now what are we going to do then?!" I ended up shouting at him.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of her. Two of you, go home. NOW." Kakashi-sensei told us, emphasizing the word now.

Kakashi's POV

"No! Just wake her up, Kakashi-sensei! Please! We will go home.... Together." Naruto said, but I need to make him drag his butt home. I already saw Sasuke nod and walk home.

"Naruto, I will just bring her home. Go now."

"B-Bu-!"

"No buts."

He sighed, giving up. I saw him nod a bit, and he slowly stood up, walking home.

I knew what happened to Rinn. Someone casted a genjutsu on her while she is sleeping and now, she is crying, probably because of the situation happening inside her mind. She is stuck in a genjutsu. Kurenai is the only one who can wake her up now. So, I carried her and brought her to Kurenai's place.

Rinn's POV

The voice suddenly disappeared. What happened? The man appeared in front of me. Woah. He looks familiar.

"You will meet me soon, Rinn."

Huh...?

"What?" Then, he disappeared again. Oh come on! What is this?! Hide and seek?! Anyway, I stood up and walked, walked, walked, and walked until I came to a stop. There is a huge gate in front of me.

It's so dark! But I still know that those are the gates of Konoha. Woah. I didn't imagine that it would be so big! It suddenly opened and Kurenai was standing there. Hm. Weird.

"Rinn, wake up!! Rinn!" Kurenai yelled and my surroundings suddenly turned black. So fudgin' weird.

Kakashi's POV

Kurenai did some handsigns and touched Rinn's forehead. Then, Rinn woke up. I saw her held the part where the mark is.... On her stomach.

"It was just a dream?" Rinn asked.

"No. You were in a genjutsu, but don't worry. You are fine now." Kurenai said.

"How come?" She still held her stomach. Then, I saw red liquid trickling down her hand. Blood. Wait, what?

"If it was only a genjutsu, then why do I still have this wound?" That made me shock. Wound?

Rinn's POV

I held the part where I was stabbed by the unknown and creepy man. Hmm. I wonder. Why doesn't it hurt me? It's like I don't have a wound at all. It's just the blood. My face is probably full of confusion at the time being. What's happening to me?

"Umm... Kakashi-sensei, if you don't mind, I need to go home, Naruto is probably worried now. Thanks anyway, for waking me up." I said to Kakashi.

He slowly nodded.

"But how about that wound? We need to heal it first."

"No need to, Kakashi-sensei. I'm fine." Then, before they can even complain, I stood up and walked home, leaving the two of them behind.

I wonder. Who was that man? He was kinda' familiar to me. And he wanted to kill me? Good luck on doing that. Anyway, when I arrived home, I saw Naruto sleeping on his mattress on the floor, poor kid. I sighed and lied down on my bed, or should I say, his bed. Then, I fell asleep.

-THE NEXT DAY-

I woke up and did my morning routine, along with Naruto. Then, mission time!

-FEW DAYS LATER-

Now, it's time for us to find the missing cat, Tora. Just like in the series. Kakashi-sensei gave us each an uhh.... Earphone..? Nahh. It's a some kind of device. Then, we placed it inside our ear/wore it. I just sat on the branch. I was standing a while ago, and just watched them chase the poor cat. Minutes later, Naruto caught the cat and boy!! His face was full of scars and scratches!

I jumped down from the tree I was sitting on and stood in front of Naruto.

"Come here, Tora." I said to the cat while spreading my arms wide. Tora jumped from Naruto's arms and I caught her with mine. Aw! She is so cute and fluffy! I just hugged and hugged her while walking towards the place where the Hokage is.

"Mission accomplished." Kakashi said. I saw the owner of the cat when we arrived and....

"Aw! My poor Tora! I missed you!" She exclaimed while hugging, or more like squishing, the cat to death. I let go of the cat a while ago when we arrived so yeah.

I walked towards the owner and stopped in front of her.

"I would just like to say... Please take good care of her. She ran away because she doesn't like the way you treat her. So, if you understand what I'm saying..." I said out of nowhere. She just stared at me and slowly untightened the way she was hugging Tora. Great. She understood what I was talking about.

I looked around and saw ALL of them staring at me like I'm a crazy woman who threw up rainbows and ate a plate. I sighed and sat on the ground, waiting for the Hokage to speak. The said man cleared his throat and announced the next mission, or should I say, the next chores, which obviously made Naruto mad.

"I'm tired of the tasks you give us all the time! Give us some real missions! Not tasks! Those are just for babies! I'm a ninja already!" Naruto shouted while doing an X sign with his arms. I didn't even bother to listen anymore. And while the Hokage was talking blah blah blah, I listened to Naruto. He told us about the ramen he ate last night and that stole the whole attention of our team. 'Cause our topic's much more interesting than what the Hokage's blabbering all about.

"Silence!" I heard the Hokage shout.

"S-Sorry, Hokage-sama." Kakashi-sensei said. And of course, I, again, didn't listen, blah blah blah. Minutes later, Tazuna came in, holding a bottle of sake in his hand.

"These brats are the ones who will protect me?!" He shouted at us.

"They don't even look like ninjas! They are just a bunch of brats! Especially the shortest one with the idiotic look on his face!" He yelled, then, took a gulp of the sake he was holding.

"Who is the shortest one with the idiotic look on his face?!" Naruto asked with a grin and we all lined up.

Sasuke is the tallest, next is Sakura. Good thing, I'm taller than Naruto by one inch, so, that leaves him the shortest with the idiotic look on his face. I laughed while he attacked Tazuna. Kakashi held his collar before he can even get close to the guy though. KJs everywhere.

"And who is this? His twin sister or something?" He asked while pointing a finger at me.

"She looks even more like an i***t!"

......Silence.....

He said that while laughing. Oh, he is surely gonna' pay.

"What was that..? WHAT DID YOU FUDGIN' SAY!?!?!!!" I roared while running towards him with a kunai knife in my hand.

"I'm gonna' kill you!"

Kakashi held the back of my shirt, too. Praise the KJs.

"You two shouldn't kill the one who we must protect, bakas." He said with a calm voice and narrowed eyes. Tazuna cleared his throat before introducing himself.

"Anyway, I'm Tazuna the master bridge-builder from the Land of Waves and I need your protection. I need to go back and finish the bridge without any trouble. Just escort me while I build it." He said like nothing happened awhile ago. Pretty twisted.

"You just insulted us, then you will ask for our protection?! How insane!!" I yelled at him, then, laughed crazily.

"Rinn!" Kakashi-sensei scolded. He dropped the both of us and I sat on the ground with a hmph.

"That is our client. Speak more respectfully, Rinn." Kakashi scolded...... Again.

"Whatever! He should do the same.." I muttered to myself. Minutes later, after we got ready ourselves, we went to the gate for our mission.

"Oh yeah! This is the very first time I'll be leaving Konoha!" Naruto shouted.

"Is he even a ninja?" Tazuna whispered to Kakashi, but I heard it.

"Yes, he is!" I shouted in his ears, making him jump from shock. Good for him!! Stupid judgemental people!

"Hmph!" I said while walking towards Naruto.

"Come on, Naruto!" I shouted with my cheerful voice and held his arm. After a few minutes, I saw a puddle. Oh! It's time already? I stayed close to Naruto.

'I'll prevent him from getting poisoned.' I thought.

Then, I saw the chains tear Kakashi into pieces and boy, was their faces funny!! But instead of laughing at my teammates, I waited for the two criminals who killed Kakashi to come out. As expected, Naruto froze.

Before the ninja can even hurt Naruto, I stepped in front of him and took the scratch instead. I kicked the man afterwards, making him fly backwards and hit a tree.

"Awesome!" I said to myself. Again, it doesn't hurt me. The wound in the back of my left hand, it doesn't hurt. How come?

Kakashi came out of nowhere and in a blink of an eye, he already have the two criminals hanging limply from each arm, unconscious. He tied them up on a tree and looked at me, more like stared.

"I didn't know that you will freeze there, Naruto." Kakashi said.

"Hey! He was not hurt!" I shouted.

"Rinn, the claws of that ninja who scratched you are poisoned and it will spread in your body if you don't remove it immediately." He said.

"Nahh, it doesn't hurt anyway. I mean, why would I even bother? Geez, I can't even feel the pain." I said in a playful manner and that made Kakashi stare at me with narrowed eyes, more like, eye.

"Let me see." Kakashi-sensei said while holding my hand. I saw the wound closing and healing itself. Kakashi also has this serious look on his face while staring at my almost-gone wound.

"Woah! That is totally awesome!" I end up shouting at Kakashi. Now, I really feel like I'm Naruto!!

"So, I can heal myself??" I asked him but he just ignored me and stared at my automatically-closing wound until there is no more blood or wound or even a tiny scratch left. It's totally healed and it looks like it haven't been touched at all. Awesome.

I didn't even bother to ask the same question again because I know that Kakashi would just ignore me AGAIN. So, I just pulled my hand back and started to walk towards Naruto.

"You okay?" I asked him and he just nodded.

Minutes later, after Tazuna's explanation, after the ride in the boat, and after our long trip, let's move on. Now, Naruto is throwing kunai knives at random places saying Here! and a lame excuse follows. I saw a cute white bunny, scared to death. The kunai was stucked on the trunk above the cute fellow.

But Kakashi looks serious. Way too serious. Naruto kept hugging the bunny saying I'm so so sorry! I know why Kakashi's face is like that. Kinda' weird. Then, he suddenly said Get down!! and all of them ducked down except for me.

I was lost in thought when Kakashi suddenly pushed me, making the two of us fall on the ground with a thud. I saw a huge sword pass above me just after I landed on the hard ground, going straight to the tree and yeah. It got stuck there.

Zabuza appeared and he is now standing on his huge sword. I also saw his legwarmers. I laughed at that, catching his attention and causing him to look at me.

"Hiya' Mr. MooMoo! Nice meeting ya'!" I greeted, still laughing.

"Well well well, what do we have here? A cutiepie eh?" I heard him say.

I can still see his smirk even though his nose and mouth are covered in bandages like a mask.

"Thanks for the compliment!" I said in my cheerful voice while slowly standing up. Words mean nothing to me. Well, some does.

"Well, isn't it the Demon of the Hidden Mist, Zabuza Momochi." I yawned and decided to take a nap for I know that this would go well.

Zabuza's POV

I saw the girl, who called me Mr. MooMoo awhile ago, take a nap...?? She slowly lied down on the ground, closing her eyes. Then, all of them looked at her while sweatdropping. That was weird. Totally. I felt something inside of me when my eyes landed on her. Something warm. What's this strange feeling?

Something, or a some kind of feeling, tells me not to hurt her. And why is she sleeping even after knowing that there would be a fight? It's like she doesn't care or something, like she doesn't give a damn at all. Or maybe she's just mocking me?? Ugh. All of those questions keep repeating and repeating in my head. Argh. Weird kid.

Kakashi's POV

I lifted my forehead protector or headband, just enough for my left eye to be seen. It has the Sharingan and I used it to fight Zabuza. Just copying his moves and techniques.

-MINUTES LATER-

Shoot! I'm trapped inside his Water Prison Technique.

"Sasuke, Sakura, Naruto! Bring Rinn and Tazuna! Then run! Go and protect him! That's an order! A strict order!!" I shouted at them. Then, I saw Rinn slowly waking up in the corner of my eye. She yawned and looked at me with sleepy eyes. What's her problem?! We are in a fight here and she just took a nap?! Ugh. Weird kid.

Rinn's POV

I woke up because of Kakashi's loud voice. Talk about destroying a peaceful nap! Ugh!

"Hey! Keep it down there! Someone is trying to sleep here!" I shouted at him.

"So, the baby is now awake." Zabuza stated. Baby? For real? I know that I'm cute and all but I don't deserve being called a baby, not that I want it or anything, for Pete's sake!!

"You've got it all completely wrong, Mr. MooMoo. The name's Rinn." I said while staring at him with narrowed eyes.

"And I'm Zabuza, not Mr. MooMoo." He spat out.

"Okay, okay." I muttered, just enough for Zabuza to hear. I stretched and yawned, then, decided to fight because Kakashi-sensei's already trapped inside Zabuza's Water Prison Technique.

I did a few unknown handsigns and a random katana appeared in front of me with a poof. I saw them staring at me, astonished. My eyes haven't changed though. They still show sleepiness and boredness. I took the katana anyway and slowly walked towards Zabuza.

"Rinn! What are you doing?! Take Tazuna and run! You obviously can't win against him!" Kakashi shouted at me but I didn't stop walking and just stared boredly at Zabuza, dragging the katana with me.

"Come on, Rinn! Take Tazuna and run! That's an order!" Kakashi seems mad now. I still don't care though.

"In the world of ninja, those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum." I muttered, just enough for the two of them to hear. They just kept their eyes on me.

I stopped walking, my sleepiness disappearing. They still stared at me. Okay. This is kind of creeping me out.

"Whaaaat?" I asked them in a playful manner. I even dragged the aaaa part to sound childish, with a simple reason of wanting to piss Kakashi off and slightly bother cowhead.

"Do I have something on my face?" I continued to ask them using my cheerful voice. I'm pretending to be cute and acting all innocent-like. This takes a lot of effort and I need to maintain my concentration so shhh! Anyway, after a good three minutes of having an awesome staring contest, Zabuza decided to make a water clone.

"Finally!" I shouted with a grin on my face. I disappeared in a blink of an eye and suddenly appeared behind Zabuza's clone, who is currently standing on water. I sliced it in half using my katana and splash! His clone returned back into being water.

"Pfft! Too easy." I said with a mocking voice, making Zabuza mad.

Zabuza made five clones and before they could even move a muscle, I already sliced them all in half. It just happened in a mere second.

"Woah! I didn't know that I'm incredibly fast!" I said to myself.

"What?! How can you do that so easily?!" Zabuza shouted.

"Hmm..? I dunno'!" I said using a cute and tiny voice. My eyes also show innocence, just to add some more effects. If you know what I mean. Anyway, I saw Sasuke and Naruto talking in the corner of my eye and that only shows one thing. It's time to rock and roll.

I stretched again and sat on the ground, staring at Zabuza.

"Hmm.... Why are you covering your mouth and nose?" A sudden question came out from my mouth. Ugh. I just want to knoooooooow why!

He ignored me because.......... Weeeell.... He is busy defending himself from Sasuke's attack. I haven't noticed that their plan already started. Hmm. Weird. Then, you know what happens next. Just the plan. Like what I watched in my television many times.

My thoughts were harshly cut off when a huge wave suddenly crashed on me, also making my surroundings wet. I didn't expect that to happen and.... I. Can't. Breath! I am already deep underwater and my lungs are burning! I also don't know how to swim! Good thing, I'm heading towards the tree and I used that as my support to swim up.

When I was out of the water, I inhaled a big amount of air, for my lungs are already almost out of it! The current of the water is so strong right at this very moment! How can I save myself now?! I'm just hugging the tree that saved my life, but I'm afraid the water will soon carry me away again and make me drown.

I was shocked when a hand suddenly held my arm and pulled me upwards, getting me out of the water. The person placed me on a branch where he/she is. Wait. I am now facing the back of that person and wait a minute... The one who saved me was.....

"Haku?!" I yelled and suddenly covered my mouth, realizing what I just did. Oops! He looked at me but I couldn't see his expression because he is still wearing his mask. To my surprise, he hit me on my pressure point using a senbon and before I could even do something, I blacked out.

Kakashi's POV

When I was about to end the life of Zabuza, two senbons hit his neck, instantly killing him. I checked his pulse and felt that he is already dead. I saw the person who did it.

"I'm one of the hunter-nin who had been tracking him a long time ago. Even though he is dead, his body still contains clues and evidences. That's why I need to take his body with me. Anyway, thank you for helping me capture him." The hunter-nin said.

He carried Zabuza and using one hand, he did a handsign and disappeared afterwards.

"Come on, let's go." I told my team. But, suddenly, my body felt unusually heavy and I fell down.

"Kakashi-sensei! Are you okay?!" They asked.

"Yeah, I guess I just used my Sharingan too much." And after that, I passed out.

Haku's POV

I put Zabuza into a near-death state and that tricked the copy-cat ninja. He thought that I killed him, but he is totally wrong. Now, Zabuza's already awake and he removed those senbons pierced in his neck.

"You shouldn't remove those senbons so roughly. One mistake and your life will end, for real this time." I told him calmly, also seeing anger and madness in his eyes.

Anyway, the girl, who had her consciousness taken by me, slowly woke up. Oh yes, I carried her and now, she is beside Zabuza, slowly getting up. How did she even know my name? I haven't seen her before so.... How did she know my name? I made her unconscious awhile ago because I found her suspicious.

Rinn's POV

I woke up just to see Haku and Zabuza staring at me. Hey, guess what? Haku already removed his mask! Yipee! I finally saw his beautiful face in person! Awesome!

"Woah! You. Are. So. Pretty!" I shouted at Haku using my cheerful voice and suddenly hugged him, catching him off guard and causing the both of us to fall on the ground.

Haku removed my arms around him and I pouted, immediately seeing Haku's face turn a little reddish afterwards. How cuuute! I didn't know that I was staring at him with a good 3-inch space between our faces.

"How did you know my name?" Haku suddenly asked. I gulped and crawled backwards a little, getting slightly nervous.

"Uhh.... I don't know..?" That came out more like a question than an answer, but nevermind.

"She knows your name?" Zabuza asked the beautiful dude.

"Yes. She kinda' shouted it when I helped her awhile ago."

"You helped her? Why do so?" Oh, stop repeating what Haku says! Baka!

"Okay! Okay! I will be the storyteller for today! Ehem!! Awhile ago, I was sitting on the ground while deeply thinking of something important. Then, my thoughts were suddenly cut off because a huge wave of your fudgin' water came crashing on me! And unfortunately, I can't swim. I was swept by that current 'cause it was so strong, and was barely alive when I found some support. My lungs were burning that time because I was already deep and the air in my lungs are almost gone. Then, I saw a tree, which was the support I was talking about, and used it to swim up. I just hugged it afterwards."

"To my surprise, a hand held my arm and pulled me up. That person was him." I said while pointing a finger at Haku.

"He pulled and helped me up on the branch where he was and when I recognized him, I accidentally yelled his name and that obviously shocked him, so he put me to sleep. The end."

They stared at me... Again. Ugh.

"Do I know you?" Haku asked me.

"Nope!" I said in a playful manner.

"So, how did you know who I am?" He asked again.

"Well, I saw you somewhere. I just can't put a finger on it."

"If you only saw me, how did you know my name then?" It's hard making excuses, you know!

"Hmm.... Simply because I saw a picture of you with your name on it." I lied. He doesn't seem to believe me but oh well! I don't care anymore! I'm tired of making excuses!

"Hey hey! Haku! Zabuza! Can you two uhh.... Teach me some things?"

...... Silence........ Okay. That's just rude.

"Oh come on! I'm tired of you two staring at me all the time! I didn't know that I'm that ugly! Wait.... I'm not ugly!!" I ended up shouting at them.

"I will just end your life to make my surroundings quiet." Zabuza said while slowly standing up and getting his sword. I gulped.

"Umm.. No! Wait! Uhh... Zabuza!" I said while waving my hands in front of me.

"Umm.... Can you just teach me some things? Please?" I asked, this time with pleading eyes. Come on! Come on! Come on!

"Zabuza, you can't move too much in that state." Haku warned him and I saw Zabuza stiffen a little, knowing that he really can't move too much. I helped Zabuza sit on the ground and when he looked at me, I just somehow.... Smiled.

"Can you teach me some things? Please?" I asked Zabuza again with pleading eyes and a warm smile. He sighed, finally giving up, and nodded.

"But in one condition. You will stay with us." He told me seriously.

I nodded and hugged him "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

"Get off me." He said while removing my arms around his neck. I suddenly stood up and hugged Haku.

"Did you hear that?! I will be with the two of you!!" I said and he just sweatdropped. Aww. How cute.

"Goodnight." I said and yawned. I suddenly felt sleepy and dizzy, so, after saying that, I blacked out AGAIN.

Haku's POV

I sweatdropped when I saw the girl named Rinn fall unconscious. I smiled at myself seeing her sleeping so peacefully even though she is such a clumsy and silly girl.

"Haku, let's go. Bring her with us." Zabuza said.

"Hai." I said while carrying her. Hmm.... She is just as light as a feather and that made it easier for me to bring her with us. One question still kept on repeating in my mind. Seriously. How did she know my name??

I mean, when I asked her that question, I felt her tense and knew that she was lying the whole time but oh nevermind that.

Naruto's POV

When Kakashi-sensei passed out, we brought him home, I mean Tazuna's home, and Tsunami, Tazuna's daughter, took care of him. That was an awesome fight indeed. I wonder when will that happen again.

I sat on the couch while Tsunami prepared dinner. She just finished healing Kakashi-sensei's minor cuts and wounds a while ago and now, here we are, patiently waiting for the food. I looked around and saw Sakura and Sasuke sitting, too.

Wait a minute.... Where is Rinn? I haven't seen her in the fight. Well, I did actually but she was sleeping and then suddenly disappeared!! I remember! Kakashi-sensei and Zabuza's water technique flooded the place!

I gasped. Maybe the water swept her away! I remember her telling me that she can't swim well. She is still probably in that place where the fight happened and.... And she doesn't know where Tazuna's house is! I must go out and find her!

"Sasuke! Sakura-chan! I will be out for a while! Stay here and watch Tazuna!" I said, panicking, and ran towards the place where the fight happened, slamming the door close on the way.

"Wait! Naruto, where are you going!?" I heard Sakura shout after me but I didn't even bother to answer.

Sasuke's POV

Naruto suddenly went outside, running, saying that he will be out for a while. Then, it hit me. I haven't noticed Rinn gone!

"Sakura! Go follow him! I will be right behind you!" I suddenly shouted, making Sakura jump in fear.

"H-Hai!" She said while running after Naruto.

"Tazuna! I will be leaving for a while! Please watch Kakashi-sensei while I'm gone!" I said, or more like shouted, at him. I didn't even give him a chance to say something because I already ran after Sakura, shutting the door on the way.

Naruto's POV

I went to the place where the fight happened, near the river. I am now standing here, panting.

"Rinn! Where are you?!" I shouted and silence answered my question.

"Naruto!" I'm glad to hear someone shout my name and thought that it was Rinn but when I looked behind me, I saw Sakura panting.

"Naruto! Sakura!" I heard Sasuke yell, running towards us.

"What are you two doing here?! I told you to watch Tazuna-chan!" I roared, losing my patience.

"Sorry if we didn't notice Rinn gone, but please let us help you find her." Sakura said.

"Okay, okay." I said, giving up.

"Let's split up! That will make it much easier and faster!" Sasuke said and we nodded.

"Let's meet up here again later! In this exact place where we are standing, okay?" I said and both of them said Hai.

-HOURS LATER-

My throat felt sore from shouting and my legs are already trembling from being exhausted and all worn up.

"I need to find her!" I told myself. I can't give up now. Before I can even step one foot forward, Kakashi-sensei suddenly appeared in front of me, using his crutches to help him stand.

"Naruto, what are you doing here late at night?" He asked me with a calm voice but I can feel the anger in it.

"Kakashi-sensei! We are finding Rinn-chan! She suddenly disappeared!" I told him, panicking again.

"We will find her tomorrow after your training. Go get some sleep." But before I can even complain, he disappeared with a poof, leaving me here with my thoughts. I sighed, giving up.

"Guess I can't do anything for now..." I said to myself, slowly walking towards Tazuna's house.

Sasuke's POV

After hours and hours of searching, I decided to go back to our meeting place. I saw Sakura already there, waiting.

"Sasuke-kun, did you find her?" She asked with tiredness in her voice. I just shook my head saying No.

She sighed.

"Where is Naruto?" She asked again.

Then, suddenly, Kakashi-sensei appeared in front of us.

"Naruto already went home. You two should go home as well. We will just find Rinn tomorrow after your training." He said and before I can even argue, he disappeared.

"Let's go." I said while walking towards Tazuna's house. 'I wonder where she is...' I thought while looking at the dark sky with beautiful stars twinkling there. I sighed. I hope she is fine.

Sakura's POV

I followed Sasuke-kun, walking towards Tazuna's house. I saw him look at the sky for a while, deep in thoughts. Then, he just hanged his head low while sighing. 'He looks sad...' I thought to myself. 'Maybe he is worried about Rinn. Just like us....' I smiled at that thought. He finally cares for someone.

Naruto's POV

When I arrived home, I mean Tazuna's house, I went to my designated room. Actually, I'm gonna share it with Sasuke. Anyway, I lied down on my mattress, thinking about Rinn. I sighed. 'I hope you are alright there, wherever you are, Rinn.' I thought while slowly falling into a deep slumber.

Sasuke's POV

I arrived home and went straight to my room, not even bothering to see if Sakura is trailing behind me. 'Who cares..' I thought while opening the door of my room. I saw Naruto already asleep on his mattress.

"Well, I better sleep, too." I muttered to myself, lying down on my mattress. 'Rinn, I'm going to find you tomorrow. I hope you are alright there.' I thought while looking at the window in OUR room. I, then, fell asleep.

Sakura's POV

I saw Sasuke-kun go straight to his room and of course, I did the same to mine. When I opened the door, sadness started to swirl up inside me, seeing my room empty. I was supposed to share it with Rinn, but I guess not this time.

She would probably greet me now, saying Hiya Sakura!, while jumping up and down on her mattress. 'Yes, I know that she is a silly and annoying girl, but it's fun having her around.' I thought while looking around the dead room. 'I hope you are fine there, Rinn.' Then, I fell asleep.

Rinn's POV

I woke up in a room. Actually, I'm on a mattress, and when I stood up, I realized that I'm currently beside the bed where Zabuza is sleeping. Awesome! I looked around, but I couldn't see Haku anywhere.... Just Zabuza sleeping peacefully like a baby in his crib.

I laughed at that thought, but yeah... I was totally wrong.

"Why are you staring at me?" Zabuza suddenly asked while opening his eye. I didn't notice that I was staring at him! But oh well! Let's get on with the act!!

"Huh me?" I asked cluelessly while pointing a finger at myself, but it was obviously a lie. Worth a try though.

"Yes, you." Zabuza answered calmly, but I can see that he is already pissed off and just controlling his patience.

"Oh nothing!" I said.

"Where is Haku, Zabuza-chan?" I asked, changing the topic.

"I don't know. Maybe he is eating or something." Okay?

"Oh okay..."

"Go back to sleep." Zabuza said.

"Well, I'm not sleepy nor tired anymore. I mean, I passed out many times already so yeah." I said while looking around the room. Hmm.... I want to take a walk around here.

I walked towards the door and before I can even touch the doorknob, Zabuza asked something.

"Where are you going?"

"Oh! I just like to walk around and find a kitchen or something." I lied, but I think I heard my stomach growl. Well, maybe that wasn't a total lie 'cause I'm seriously hungry.

Zabuza laughed, hearing my stomach beg for food. I hmphed while taking a step foot outside Zabuza's room, closing the door on the way. I looked around and saw that I'm in a some kind of hallway. How can I remember his room?! There are so many fudgin' doors that totally look the same!

I sighed, hearing my stomach complain again. Well, I don't have any other option. I made a sticker appear with a poof and I placed it on Zabuza's door. It's kinda' small so I guess nobody will notice it.

Actually, it's a sticker with the shape of a star, a yellow one. I really don't know how I can do these things. I'll just have to make a random handsign and imagine something in my head for it to appear. Kinda' cool! Anyway, back to the present time. I'm currently walking in the hallway. It's like there's no end to this place! Ugh.

I saw a door, which is open a little, with light coming out from it. That door is different from the others so I guess that that must be the kitchen!! I happily ran towards it and slammed the door open, and I saw.... Gatō! I gulped, realizing that I entered HIS room! Now, he and his men are staring at me.

'Act natural. Act cool.' I thought to myself.

"Umm.... Hi. Can you uhh... Tell me where the kitchen is? 'Cause I'm totally lost and..... Uhhm.... I'm sorta'.... Hungry..." I said while sweating so fudgin' hard, but I tried my best and managed to come up with a calm and innocent voice.

"I've never seen you around here before. Who are you?" Gatō asked, totally ignoring my question. I also saw his men, or should I say guards, ready their weapons. Uh oh! I don't want to put up a fight! The fudge! I was asking nicely! Why you...!!

"Umm.... I'm Rinn and uhh... One of your men is my sensei. Well, more like two....." I calmly said again, but I don't think that he believes me.

"Kill her." Gatō suddenly said, making me jump in fear. The fudge?!

"What?! I was just askin' you where the fudgin' kitchen is! The fudge?! Why not answer me and why even make a huge deal out of it?! Is your kitchen that precious to you?!" I asked, or more like shouted, while doing a Why you so complicated?! troll face. Hmm... I wonder what I looked like while I was making that kind of face. I laughed at the thought. I didn't notice the ninjas running towards me with their weapons. Wait.... Fudge!!

I screamed and ran out of the room, causing most of the doors to open and MORE men to start chasing me!! I stopped, making them halt to a stop, too, and turned around, facing them.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" I suddenly yelled while doing the handsigns. Then boom! They jumped out of the way, but some of them got burned. Well, not totally burned. Just...... Burned by the hot and wild flames of awesomeness.

I used this opportunity and ran the fudge outta' there. I threw several smoke bombs, covering the path with thick white smoke. Yes!!

I ran faster this time and saw.... The kitchen! *angels singing in unison* Finally! Just about time! I saw Haku making a sandwich in there.

"Haku! I want to eat, too! I'm hungry!" I cried while looking at the fridge.

"Rinn! What are you doing here?! If Gatō's men see you.... Ugh!" He said, annoyed, and the ninjas stopped in front of the kitchen. Haku already has his eyes wide open.

"Hey! Time out!" I shouted at them while doing a T using my hands.

"Let me eat first, okay?! I'm so fudgin' hungry! Let me eat first before we continue this. I need a bit of consideration at the moment." I said, drooling with my eyes glued on the cake in the fridge. Yum!!

"What?!" Haku yelled in disbelief, along with the other ninjas.

"Uhh..... Do I need to repeat it?" I asked while slicing one triangle part of the chocolate cake and carefully putting it on my plate. I closed the fridge and slowly ate the cake, savoring the taste. Yum! So fudgin' yummy!!

I noticed them staring at me with twitching eyes.

"What?! People obviously need to eat, you know!!" I yelled at them and finished the cake in a minute, or more like a second.

"Yum!" I cheered while putting the plate in the sink for them to wash. Haha. Not my problem.

"Okay! Let's start outside! I don't want to ruin such a beautiful kitchen like this." I said while slowly walking passed them. They just stared and stared and stared. Gatō peaked out from his room though and decided to be a party pooper. Well, whatever.

"Finish her off!" He shouted, making all the ninjas attack me AGAIN.

I didn't see the sword from one of the ninjas that came towards me and also didn't have the time to block. The sword pierced right through my shoulder, causing me to scream in pain and curse out the world. He roughly removed the sword and was about to stab me again. I simply held my shoulder. However, before they can even attack, Haku already stood in front of me.

"Try to hurt her again and you'll regret it." He said threateningly.

"Haku! What is this fuss all about?!" Zabuza suddenly asked, using his loud voice, while slowly walking towards us.

"It's just Rinn." Haku answered lowly.

"What?! Why is it my fault?!" I yelled at them.

"I just asked for some directions!" I added, defending myself. They just sighed.

"Gatō, tell your men to go back to their places or I'll rip their heads off." Zabuza said calmly while glaring daggers at Gatō. Then, I passed out again for I'm really dizzy. I wonder why......

Haku's POV

I saw Rinn black out again. Releasing a long sigh, I carefully carried her.

"Haku, let's go." Zabuza said, not even bothering to look if Gatō's men are already gone or not. I just followed him. When I was about to open the door of our room, I saw a small poof on it.

I simply shrugged my shoulders and went inside. I was also about to place Rinn on her mattress when.....

"Place her on the bed." Zabuza muttered. I followed him, not in the mood to argue.

-MINUTES LATER-

I already bandaged Rinn's wound. It was really bad, seeing that the sword went right through her shoulder.... But it's fine now. Then, me and Zabuza decided to sleep.

-TWO DAYS LATER-

Rinn's POV

I woke up, seeing Haku, who is about to leave.

"Haku-chaaaaaaan!" I shouted, making him jump in shock.

"Oh... You are awake already." He released a sigh of relief, seeing that it was only me.

"Can I come with you?" I asked with a cute-puppy face.

"No, Rinn. You need to rest." He said.

"But I'm totally fiiiine!" I argued while removing the bandages on my left shoulder, even dragging the i out.

"See?" I told him while he gasped. My wound is fully healed and there is not even a scratch.

"Okay, fine. You can come with me, but change your clothes first." He said and pointed out my blood-stained clothes.

"One problem, I don't have any clothes. Let me borrow one of your sleeveless kimonos first! Please!" I pleaded like a four-year old kid who wants a lollipop.

"Fine, fine." I noticed his face get a little redder but I think it was just my imagination. Anyway, he handed me a sleeveless kimono. It's just like his pink one, but this one is blue. Awesome.

"Where can I change?" I asked and he pointed a finger at a random door inside our room. I honestly haven't noticed that before. Anyway, I ran towards that mysterious room and slowly opened the door. 'Bathroom.' I thought while locking it right after entering the room that was mentioned. I removed my orange longsleeves and wore the kimono. I didn't remove my shorts anymore. I didn't remove my boots, too. I'm actually too lazy to do it. Then, I slammed the door open, seeing Haku sitting on the bed, waiting for me. He smiled.

"It suits you."

"Thanks! But my boots....." I looked at my boots and did a disgusted facial expression. Ugh. Ugly.

"Don't worry. Remove it. I still have a pair of sandals here." He said while getting it from the cabinet that I didn't notice there before. What's with me not noticing things?! Anyway, I removed my boots and placed it inside the bathroom, along with my longsleeves. I closed the door of the bathroom after that and Haku handed me a pair of brown sandals.

"Thank you, Haku-chan." I gave him a warm smile and he did the same. I wore the brown sandals and they fit me just well! Awesome!!

"Come on. Let's go." He said while holding the basket he will use.

"Wait a second..." I said and removed my hair ribbons/ponytails, removing my pigtail hairstyle and letting my straight blonde/yellow hair fall down to my butt. Kinda' long huh...

"There. Better." I said while holding his other hand.

"Why did you remove it?" Haku asked.

"Well, I'm tired of that thing. I wanted to change my style and try a new one!!" I exclaimed while giggling a little. Then, me and Haku started to walk..... Walk and walk and walk....

-MINUTES OF WALKING LATER-

"Ugh. Are we there yet?"

"No."

"Are we there yet?"

"No."

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

..... Silence.........

"Are we there yet?"..... Okay. Ignored. Anyway, I saw an orange blob lying motionless on the ground. I ran towards the thing and saw that it was nothing, or maybe no one, but..... Naruto!

"Haku-chan! Look! It's my bestfriend, Naruto!" I told him while pointing at my friend who is currently on the ground, asleep.

"Are you going with them now?" He asked.

"What? No! You haven't even taught me anything yet." I mumbled.

"I'm sure that he is about to wake up now. He will probably tell you to go home with him." I looked at Haku. He is showing a some kind of emotion. I just can't tell what it is..... Fudge, I can't even describe it!

"Don't worry, Haku-chan. I'm going to talk to him." I said.

He nodded and sat on the ground. Then, he started to pick some herbs as I shook Naruto awake.

"Naruto, wake up!"

"Poor boy...." I heard Haku comment under his breath while chuckling a bit. I soon joined him.... I felt Naruto move later on.

"Ugh..." I heard him say while yawning.

"Naruto!" I exclaimed while hugging him, his sleepiness disappearing. He suddenly hugged me back and I felt my back slowly getting wet. I looked at him and saw him crying.

"Rinn...."

"Naruto, don't cry." I said while wiping his tears away.

"Come on.... Smile! I want to see my brother smile!" I cheered while giving him a warm smile and soon, he smiled, too.

"There, see? You look better. I don't want to see you crying again, okay?"

"Okay..." He muttered.

20 questions time!!

"Rinn, where have you been?" Told yah'!

"Well, remember when Zabuza and Kakashi-sensei did water techniques?" He nodded.

"The water swept me away and Haku saved me." I pointed a finger at the person who is picking herbs at the very moment with his back facing us. Naruto couldn't see his face because of that.

"You see, I want to learn some things from them and learn how to perform their techniques, so I stayed under their wing." He stared at me for a while.

"You've been hurt, right?" What? How did he know?

"Nope." I said with a calm voice.

"You're lying." Oh fudge!

"Okay okay! A sword was pierced through my shoulder, but look! It's gone now and is healed. I'm fine." I said.

"Okay. I'm glad it did heal. But where have you been sleeping? Are you okay with them? Are they hurting you?" I sighed, annoyed.

"One by one please. I can't answer that so many questions all at once." I stated while giggling a little. Bipolar? Yep!

"Anyway, I sleep at their place and I'm obviously okay with them. Also, they will not hurt me."

"How did you know that they will not hurt you? A sword just pierced right through your shoulder and made you bleed. It's dangerous to stay with them." He mumbled while eyeing Haku.

"Naruto, they are the ones who saved me from being killed and...." I don't want to say to him that I stay at Gatō's lair sooo..... Another excuse then!

"Rogue ninjas were the ones who hurt me, not them." He didn't seem to believe me, but didn't question me further more, knowing that I'm already a little pissed off.

"Umm.... Please don't tell Kakashi-sensei, Tsunami, Tazuna, Sakura, and Inari that you saw me here, okay? Only you and Sasuke must know." I told him seriously. Oh wait.... Did I just mention Tsunami and Inari? Naruto knows that I haven't even saw them yet. Nevermind. He probably won't notice that.

"Why?" Ugh.

"Please no more questions. Just.... Promise me that you will not tell the others, and I want you to train hard. Do your best, too."

"Okay! For you, sister!" The way he said that with full of determination in his eyes makes me cry, but I stopped the tears before they can even come out.

"Thank you, brother."

"No problem, sis!" Huh. We are kinda' getting used to calling ourselves sis or brother.

"Uhh.... Naruto I need to go with him now." I said while looking at Haku, who is already finished picking up herbs.

"Okay. Be safe, Rinn."

"Of course." I gave him one last final hug before running towards Haku and walking with him.

"One more thing, Haku." He just nodded. I saw Sasuke walking towards Naruto, also about to pass us. I suddenly hugged him tightly and felt him stiffen for I know that he is not used to being hugged by someone.

"Naruto will explain everything. Goodbye for now, Sasuke." I said and removed my arms around his neck. I wiped the annoying tears before he can even see it, but I know that he already saw it. Just a little though. I gave him my warmest smile and immediately ran towards Haku, seeing that he is a little bit far away now.

"Goodbye!" I shouted while waving my hand and looking back at them. Then, me and Haku walked towards Gatō's place in silence. I had a hard time keeping my annoying tears, which desperately want to come out, inside. I sighed and hanged my head low.

Haku's POV

When we arrived in our room, Rinn went straight to her mattress beside Zabuza's bed and lied down there while crying her eyes out. I feel so bad for her. I wish I could do something... But all I can do is sit there and watch her cry. After a good 15 minutes of her crying, she suddenly stood up with a jump start and I saw her wipe her tears away. Her eyes are full of determination this time and she grinned at me a second later.

"Let's not waste our time here, Haku. Let's start training!" She exclaimed. I replied her with a smile. After her little cry, she is.... Like that. Rare.

Rinn's POV

Now, we are here in a place deep inside the forest, also beside a river.

"Okay. Let's start with the basic first." He said. Pfft! I don't wanna'!

"Nah'! We already learned that in the academy! How about.... Teach me some of your ice techniques! That will be totally COOL!" I said, emphasizing the word cool.

"Only a descendant of the Yuki Clan can do such things as ice techniques, like me. Only I can do it, even the great copy-cat ninja won't be able to do it." Pfft! I can do it!

"Just give me a chance! Let me try and maybe I can do it!" He sighed in defeat.

"Okay, fine. Try making an ice crystal first."

"How can I do that?"

"Make some water from the river appear on your palm. Control it using your chakra."

"How can I do that?"

"As I said, use your chakra. I don't think you can do it anyway."

"Wow. Thanks for the vote of confidence."

"Ugh... What is your chakra nature?"

"I don't know."

"It needs to be water if you want to learn how to control WATER."

"Let me try and if I am able to do it, my chakra nature is water."

"Okay. Go near the river."

I went near the river and sat on the ground beside it, maybe a meter away. Concentrate. Think. Imagine. Breathe in and out. I made some of my chakra go to my palm, and noticed some of the water from the river slowly form a sphere on my palm in small particles. I sighed. This is pretty hard.

"Good. Now, use your chakra to turn the water to the right shape."

"What shape?"

"Shape of an ice crystal."

"Fudge, how am I going to do that? I've never seen an ice crystal before."

He made an ice crystal in a blink of an eye and now, it's floating above his palm. Awesome! I stared at it, astonished.

"This is an ice crystal. Now, make that water in your palm turn into this."

"How can I do that?"

"First, turn that sphere into the shape of this."

"How can I do that?"

"Use your chakra."

"How can I do that?"

"Ugh. Make some of your chakra transfer to that sphere."

"Then?"

"Then, use your chakra to turn the sphere into this. Imagine and focus."

I did what I was told and then, the water sphere on my palm turned into the exact shape of the ice crystal Haku made.

"Now what?"

"Make that water freeze and turn into complete ice."

"How can I do that?"

"Transfer more chakra there."

"Then?"

"Then, when it's full of your chakra, you can probably control it totally already. Now, make it freeze."

"How can I do that?"

"Use your will and chakra, Rinn. Concentrate."

I did what I was told AGAIN. The water floating on my palm slowly froze and seconds later, it turned into complete ice. I made an ice crystal, and awhile ago, it was floating on my palm, now, I'm actually holding it, which is the sharp ice crystal I made.

"This is totally..... Awesome!"

Without noticing, I made the 6-inch sharp ice crystal turn into a long ice.... Sword!! I saw Haku staring, astonished. THIS IS SO COOL.

-HOURS LATER-

Me and Haku decided to spar and now, we are both lying on the ground, exhausted. I'm panting so hard and kept on sweating like there's no end to it! Anyway, I only got a few minor cuts from his senbon needles and a few scratches and bruises.

"Let's go back before Zabuza kills us." He said while laughing even though he's tired.

"Alright, let's just return home for now and train tomorrow with Zabuza-chan."

"Okay."

"Now, I'll call you......" Wait for it!

"Haku-sensei!" I exclaimed while throwing my arms around him, catching him off guard and making us fall on the ground with a thud.

I laughed and soon, he joined me.

"You know, you're such a weird kid." Ha!

"I'm weirder than you thought!" I said and then, both Haku-sensei and I returned back.

-FEW DAYS LATER-

I woke up feeling a bit bad. My head is pounding and my back hurts like fudge!! It's probably because of the training I did these past few days with Haku-sensei and Zabuza-sensei. Zabuza-sensei taught me how to use the ice sword I made and a few water techniques he know. Haku-sensei, on the other hand, taught me ice techniques and how to properly use senbon needles. He also told me where to hit a person with a senbon needle to make him/her sleep, get unconscious, etc.

I yawned. Today is the day!! Zabuza-sensei, along with Haku-sensei, and Team 7 will fight at the Great Bridge today! And hey, I'm planning to do something. Just wait. It will be a surprise, but I think that you will not like it, even for a little. Anyway, I kept borrowing Haku's clothes, but I think that he doesn't mind at all. Hey! His clothes fit me well so yeah. I took a warm bath and wore a green sleeveless kimono and a pair of sandals that I borrowed from Haku. Kinda' obvious, right? Back to the topic, I also wore a black choker and an obi like Haku's. Well, I want to look like him! Even though I know that he will not wear it today because of the fight. From the day I stayed with them, I always let my long blonde/yellow hair down. Haku-sensei and Zabuza-sensei told me that I look good when my hair is down sooo yeah.

At the present time, we already arrived at the bridge and Haku put all the bridge-builders to sleep, or maybe he killed it. Nahh... He wouldn't do that. He is a kind-hearted boy. Anyway, I couldn't care less if those bridge-builders are dead or asleep or whatever. Rude, huh....

I waited for my sensei, teammates, and Tazuna to arrive. Minutes later, they did arrive and were shocked to see all the bridge-builders lying on the ground, unconscious. And not just that, they are also shocked to see me standing beside Zabuza-sensei and Haku-sensei.

"Rinn?!" All of them yelled in disbelief except for Sasuke. I just stood there and cheerfully waved my hand.

"Hi guys! Hi sensei!" I told them like everything seems to be normal at the time being.

"How I've missed you guys!" I exclaimed with a joyful grin on my face.

I slowly walked towards them and they just stared at me, shocked, seeing that I looked different. I hugged Sasuke and....

"Good thing, you kept your promise. Thank you." I whispered in his ear and expectedly received a death glare from the pinkette. Then, I removed my arms around Sasuke's neck and awkwardly stood there while they simply stare at me.

Wait for it....

I suddenly burst out laughing and even fell on the ground while holding my stomach, tears coming out from my eyes. I just couldn't take it anymore! If you could just see their faces! They were.... Hilarious! Almost all of them were looking at me like I'm some sort of a random stranger who just hugged Sasuke! Do I look like an alien?!

"Y-You are s-so f-funny! Pfft! Hahahahaha!" I can't stop laughing! Zabuza and Haku just stood there while sweatdropping. It was just so fudgin' funny! Especially Kakashi's hidden face! You know what your reaction or facial expression would be when after so many years, you'd find your old friends hanging out with your enemiesivals and suddenly get that feeling of betrayal but then see them hug one of your friends at the moment out of the blue like you didn't see anything and like nothing happened at all!? Then, you'd see them laugh at you and your friends' faces after like a retarded seal? Yeah, that must be how their feelings are right now. LOL. I just actually said our current situation but in their POVs instead and only in a general way.

After my little laughing trip, I stood up and wiped the tears away.

"Hey! Don't you remember me? Why are you all looking at me like that?" I asked them. Kinda' annoying though. It's like I'm not even their friend or something. They should be happy because I'm right here already, healthy and alive. However, I don't blame them for being surprised. I mean, if I were in their shoes, I'd probably feel and react the same way.

"We will talk later." Kakashi-sensei said using a cold and creepy voice that made me shiver. The fudge was that? Anyway, I shrugged the sudden feeling and change of atmosphere off and watched their fight instead. I'm just right here, sitting near the edge of the bridge.

Haku attacked Sasuke and yeah. Fight, fight, and fight. Minutes later, I saw Sasuke get trapped inside Haku's ice mirrors or whatever its name is. Maybe it's time for me to move. I did make a move and went inside the mirrors, standing in front of Sasuke just after I did so.

"What are you doing here, Rinn?!" Oopsie!! I think I made him mad a bit.

"I'm here to help my teammate." I said.

"It's such a shame to see you betray us, Rinn." Haku stated. I know that he is glaring daggers at me even though he is wearing a mask. I can feel it.

"I'm not betraying anyone and who even said that I'm with you, Haku-sensei?" I asked, or more like said, sternly.

"What?!" He yelled in disbelief.

"Now, now~!! Don't be mad~!" I sang, provoking him even more on purpose. He is fudgin' angry now. Sasuke just stared at me, on the other hand.

"After all we have done for you.... Ugh. What you did was nothing but a dirty act and an absurd trap. We are such fools to have fallen in it. I knew that trusting you, who is one of the enemies, in the first place was a huge mistake." He said calmly.

"You are gonna' regret what you said, Haku-sensei." I replied threateningly.

Few minutes later after our talkie-talkie, Haku finally decided to continue the fight.

I made clones, but even though they bleed, they still don't disappear. They remained standing around Sasuke, shielding him and blocking the senbon needles. Minutes passed, me and my clones are like bloody garbages right now! But my wounds don't hurt at all, I don't even feel a single bit of pain. Wait a minute! Remember when Mizuki's huge shuriken hit me in the back and it didn't hurt? And when one of Gatō's men pierced a sword through my shoulder and the opposite happened? I think I know the answer now.

If I'm determined, I mean, totally determined, and without a hint of fear or nervousness or any kind of negativity in mind, I don't get hurt nor feel any physical pain, but when I'm scared out of my wits and afraid of something, even if I'm not totally afraid and if it's just a slight hesitation or regret, I totally feel the pain. So now, Haku's senbon needles don't hurt me at all because I'm positive and determined to risk my life just to save my friend. No hesitation. No fear. No regret.

"Why are you doing this?" Sasuke asked. Oh yes! I forgot to tell you! When me and my clones started to shield Sasuke, he kept on trying to escape from my clones. Ha! He can't! I will not let him get hurt!

"Dummy! I don't want you to get hurt, that's why!" I yelled back, receiving a senbon needle from Haku, which pierced on my stomach. That made me cough up blood. Eew.

"Rinn!" Sasuke called out, panicking.

Okay, he will obviously panick because:

1) I'm like a bloody mess. Totally. My clothes are painted red with my own blood and mostly of my revealed skin has blood on it.

2) I'm coughing up blood. Expectedly. I've been doing that for a few minutes now because Haku damaged my stomach and chest part pretty worse than the other body parts of mine. The blood tastes awful, believe me.

3) Hundreds of senbon needles are pierced on me, making me look like a fudgin' porcupine. Obviously. All Haku ever attacked me with are none other than his lame senbon needles and since I can't block them all, they end up getting stuck on either the ground or my body. I ain't got no time to pull those needles out of my abused flesh, too, so I just accepted the fact that I look like a bloody porcupine.

4) I'm just using a senbon needle to defend myself, totally failing, so, it's pretty useless. Stupidly. I'm too lazy to find something to use or to get any weapon, so I'll just have to endure this little metal stick first. I can still survive.

And last but not the least....

5) My grin isn't gone yet. Surprisingly. I wonder why I don't get tired of grinning nor smiling. Maybe it's a part of my nature.

I noticed Naruto go inside the mirrors and now, he is beside me with a huge fudgin' grin.

"Naruto! What are you doing here?!" I asked loudly, getting mad.

"I'm going to save you, guys!" He exclaimed. Ugh. Another bloody mess.

Haku started to throw hundred of senbon needles again. I guess I have to go back to work.

"Ugh!" I made clones appear around Naruto in a blink of an eye, shielding him as well.

"Huh?" Naruto stood there, having no clue what just happened and what's about to happen around him while my clones shield him.

I started to get exhausted. Oh no! I'm almost out of chakra! And I'm afraid that Naruto and Sasuke may get hurt soon if I don't destroy those fudgin' mirrors! I'm afraid.... Hesitations! Fear! Fudge these negativities!! The pain started to appear and spread in my whole body and I unintentionally screamed, causing Haku to stop attacking us with his senbon needles. I bit my lower lip to stop my bloody scream, but I only made it bleed.

"Rinn? Are you okay?" Naruto asked me, worried.

"Look! Hundreds of senbon needles are pierced on her and you are asking if she is okay?! Try using your brain sometimes! Dobe!" Sasuke yelled. Then, I noticed my clones disappearing, one by one.

"Oh no!" I said. This is just fudgin' great! Terrific!! I don't want them to get hurt!

The pain only got worse, making me scream again.

"She is going to die if we don't do something!" Sasuke said, panicking once again.

"No, I'll handle this! Stay back!" Before they can even argue, I made an ice sword and sliced the mirrors in half, one by one until only one was left and Haku stood there beside it. He went out because he knew that I will slice ALL the mirrors in half and I did slice it all.

"It's over, Haku." I said menacingly. Our fight took so long. I noticed that Zabuza-sensei is already trapped by Kakashi's Ninkens.

"I need to do something first." Haku said. Oh yes! I forgot to tell you again! While I'm slicing each and every ice mirror in half awhile ago, I accidentally sliced Haku's mask, too. Hahaha. Good thing, I didn't put a single scratch on his beautiful and youthful face. I obviously know that Haku will use himself as a human shield so that Zabuza won't die because of Kakashi's Chidori, but since I'm here in this world, I won't let Haku die! Before Kakashi-sensei attack Zabuza, Haku suddenly popped up in front of him and was about to receive the attack himself, but in a blink of an eye.....

There I am, in front of Haku. I felt Kakashi's hand going through my chest, burning and destroying my flesh in the process. Good thing, it is just beside my heart. I didn't feel the pain anymore because I am determined to save Haku and even risking my life just to be able to do it. Back to reality, I held Kakashi's hand before he can even remove it from my chest, just like what Haku did in the series. There stood Kakashi, shocked, seeing that he ended up attacking his own student instead of the enemy. Ha! I'm immortal!! Nah'! Just kidding! I feel sleepy and dizzy, but I know that if I let this sleepiness take over me, that's when I'll probably die. You know, it's because I just can't feel the pain! But it still doesn't mean that there's no chance for my life to end. I know that I'm gonna' die eventually. However, I still need to do something before that. I need to end Gatō's life.

Present time, I kept myself awake and saw Zabuza and Haku covered with my blood. Not totally though but...... Once again.... Eew.

"Thank you, Rinn. I knew you were not useless." Zabuza said sternly, no emotion whatsoever. He was about to attack Kakashi with his sword, but before he can do that, Kakashi already carried me and jumped backwards to avoid the sword. I saw Gatō and his men walking towards us.

"Too bad, your beautiful student died. My apologies." Gatō jokingly said while laughing. He thought that I'm dead because I'm not blinking on purpose and as pale as a ghost.

"I'm not dead yet..." I forcefully muttered, causing Kakashi to look at me with wide eyes.

"I'm not dead yet! Not just yet!! I still need to do something!" I yelled, making Gatō and his men turn their heads in my direction.

"I-Impossible." I heard him mumble.

"You are supposed to be dead!" He shouted, sounding so scared. I laughed creepily and yanked Kakashi's hand from my chest. After that, I stood up and slowly walked towards Gatō. An ice sword appeared on my hand and I tightly held the handle, laughing creepily again, but louder, and making Gatō tremble. I do that on purpose 'cause scaring him is fun.

"K-Kill her! K-Kill that monster!" He spat out, obviously and hilariously scared out of his guts, while running towards the very back of his group of men. Then, as expected, his men charged at me, but before they can even attack me, I went straight to Gatō.... At the very back.

"P-Please don't kill me! I-I'll give you all m-my money! I'll give you anything! Please spare my life!" I looked at him with threatening eyes and a fake smile plastered on my face.

"I'm sorry, Gatō, if you could just think before you make actions, maybe I could still give you some consideration and maybe not even do this to you at the first place, but it's kinda' too late for that now. You have already ruined many lives. You have already hypnotized so many people who could have just live a normal and simple life. You have already destroyed many beautiful places. Look what happened to the Land of Waves....." A tear escaped from my eye while he stared at me, frightened. I'm getting emotional.

"Remember the time when you ordered your men to kill Kaiza?" He probably remembered it because I felt him stiffen.

"How cruel..... You made your men cut his arms off and execute him in public. Horrible. You even did that in front of his own son, Inari."

"Didn't you think?! Didn't you think that Kaiza, a very brave man, doesn't have a family of his own? Didn't you think of that, huh?!" I asked loudly while starting to cry. He is so cruel.

"You are so selfish, Gatō!! You killed him just to scare the people who will stand in your way!"

"You humiliated him! And now you even have the guts to say Please spare my life! I will give anything to you!" I yelled, even mimicking his voice when I said his lines. I didn't notice that he is already in the edge of the bridge.

"What if I were you and you were Kaiza, huh?! What would you feel if I cut your arms off and torture you?! What would you feel if I killed you?! In front of your own son?! In front of the person who truly adores you the most?! In front of the person who looks up to you?! In front of the one who always wants to be just like you?! A fudgin' hero?! Huh?! What would you feel?!"

I want to torture him with my words for a while. It'll be fine because that won't physically hurt him just yet, right? I'll make sure to kill him when I'm mentally and emotionally prepared to see his blood splatter out. I also want to express my feelings and my emotions first.

"And now, look what happened to Kaiza's son. When you killed Kaiza in front of him, the old Inari disappeared. His way of believing things completely changed and became the total opposite because of what his eyes saw. He became soulless and even says that heroes don't exist. You changed him. He is hopeless now and it's all because of you and your fudgin' mental problem!"

"Now, how about these people you hired, huh?" I asked while pointing and looking at Gatō's men.

"They could've still live a normal and simple life! Have a better future!" And I saw his men lower their heads and drop their weapons.

"You hypnotized them using your stinking money! But I know that it's still not too late."

"I hope you regret what you've done in the past few years, Gatō. Kindly rest in peace."

"Goodbye." I muttered.

"No! Wa-!" I slashed him with my ice sword, leaving a deep and long cut that goes from his chest and down to his stomach.

"Sorry." I whispered while watching him fall off the bridge and straight into the sea, making a splash. After all the commotions, I turned my head and looked at his men, who are staring at me with eyes that beg for mercy and consideration.

"Now, now, don't be scared." I said in a playful manner like nothing just happened not so long ago.

"Now that your awful and cruel leader, or should I say boss, is already gone, it doesn't mean that all of you will follow his footsteps and end up vanishing as well. Not all things go that way."

I saw their frightened eyes get replaced by relieved ones. They are pretty easy to read.

"It's not too late, you know. All of you can still continue your life! Just think that Gatō was not born in this world to begin with!! He was nothing but a baby anyway! I mean, he remained a dependent coward and didn't even physically grow!" I giggled after saying that and it soon turned into a full laughter. They joined me as well.

"Go on ahead. Go and have a family of your own and have a better future. Go and achieve your dreams. It's still not too late to change for the better and leave the past behind." I said, giving them a warm smile and a thumbs-up.

"Remember that!" I exclaimed happily.

"Hai!" They all said, walked towards their boat afterwards, and slowly got in. I watched them leave with cute smiles and grins on their faces.

"Bye! I hope to see you all soon!" I shouted cheerfully while waving my hand. They waved their hands, too. I can't believe that I just changed many people's lives with my words. Well, I do hope that I changed their ways of seeing things in life, even for just a tiny bit. Sigh. The power of words. Back to the present time, when they were out of sight, I turned around and looked at the townspeople. They are here. All of them. Just like what I watched in the series back in my world. Anyway, I walked towards Zabuza and healed him, seeing that Kakashi's Ninkens bit him minutes ago. He just stared at me while I heal him. The green glow around my hands slowly disappeared and when it did, that's when I knew that he is fully healed. That's when I finally gave up.

My mission is complete. Oh wait! Scratch that!

I walked towards Kakashi.

"Kakashi-sensei, please talk to the Hokage and tell him that I want to make Haku and Zabuza official leaf ninjas. Kindly tell him to grant my simple wish. That'll be a great help to Haku and Zabuza for starting a new life in the Leaf Village as normal ninjas and not the rogue ones." I walked towards Haku and Zabuza once more.

"Please stay in the Leaf Village. Please help them in protecting and defending it. Please do it.... For me. Favor from me to you." I said while looking at Haku and Zabuza. Then, I gave all of them my warmest smile and finally..... Mission complete. I let the sleepiness take over me, knowing that I'll.... DIE. I whole-heartedly accept my death now.

Naruto's POV

All of us stared at Rinn as she falls on the ground with a loud and heavy thud. I felt my eyes wet and before I even know it, I was crying. Hot tears fell from my face while I ran towards Rinn.

"Rinn! You can't leave me!" I yelled while shaking her.

"Rinn! Come on! Open your eyes...." I slowly said, kneeling on the ground and hugging her.

"Rinn, you promised me. You promised me that we would be powerful ninjas together..... T-Together until we grow up, right?" I cried my eyes out. She is covered in blood, her beautiful blonde/yellow hair can't be seen anymore because of her blood. It's like she dyed it in red color. Her clothes are also blood-stained and she has so many senbon needles pierced on her. She has a deep bloody hole in her chest and I'm still hugging her like this. I don't care if I also get covered in blood. Washing these stains of courageousness and braveness away is much lighter than not having her around anymore for the rest of our lives. I don't want to leave her side. She was my only family and I let her die like this. I didn't even protect her! She risked her life to protect me and the others. Rinn.... She is a true hero.

My tears fell on her face, washing a few stains of blood away in droplets. Those beautiful blue eyes she has and the whiskers she has on her cheeks. Our similarities. She was like my true sister. She was the only one.... I had.

"Naruto, let's go." I heard Kakashi-sensei say while reaching out his hand to me. I harshly slapped it away, seeing Rinn's blood all over it.

"Kakashi-sensei, I can't believe that you attacked her like that." I mumbled, loud enough for him to hear. I can feel the boiling anger inside of me.

"She shielded and saved the person I was about to attack, Naruto. It was her choice and I can't blame her for it."

"You could've atleast stopped it! You could've atleast stopped that Chidori of yours, but what?! You still attacked her with it!" I angrily yelled at him.

"No, Naruto. I didn't have enough time to do that. She was very near and I was on full-force. I didn't expect such behavior from her. What I did was unintentional, too."

"Well, atleast you admitted it! It was your fault!" I shouted.

"Why did this have to happen to her? She was so kind. She didn't deserve to die." I muttered to myself.

"Naruto, you can't bring her back to life. Let's go." He said calmly.

"No! I will not leave her here!" I argued and looked at her face for one last time. Such gorgeous face she has.... Honestly.

Suddenly, my surroundings vanished and turned into pure black. Pure darkness.

"Naruto.... Naruto..." I heard someone call out. My surroundings started to reappear, but I'm in a totally different place now. I walked and walked and walked, searching for a way out, or something, in that mysterious place. Before I even know it, I stood in front of a huge cage with a gigantic monster locked inside it.

Huhh.... If Rinn was here, she would probably say that it's cute and would obviously scold me for calling it a monster. Man, I can feel the hot tears falling down my face again.

"Do you really want that girl to live?" The monster asked me.

"Of course, I do. She didn't even deserve to suffer like that at the first place."

"Then I will do you a favor and let her live."

"R-Really?" I asked with hopes flying up high, and stared at.... Let's just say him.

"Yes. Now, she just needs to rest."

Then, my normal surroundings came back again. I watched the wound Rinn got from the Chidori as it slowly closed itself with an orange light around it. The senbon needles also got removed all by themselves, with the same light around each needle, from Rinn's body, and simply fell on the ground. To my surprise, she started to float in the air, orange light surrounding her as each and every wound healed itself. Blood from her clothes and hair disappeared, so as the cuts, bruises, and scratches she had. Now, she is still in a standing position, but remained floating. I stared in awe. She looks like she didn't even fight. Rinn is still wearing a green sleeveless kimono with an obi, a choker around her neck, and a pair of sandals. Her hair was automatically tied up in high pigtails. She stood there in front of me, and this time, she's not floating anymore. The mysterious orange light disappeared as well and finally, she opened her eyes. Her beautiful blue eyes.

"Naruto, I'm alive?" She asked. I hugged her and hot tears fell from my face once again.

"Yes." I whispered in her ear and didn't notice myself smiling.

Rinn's POV

After all the dramatic moments and scenes we had, I received a tight hug from Sakura which I didn't really expect. Yeah, she said that she hates me and Naruto, but look, she just hugged me to death.

Hm hmm~!!

I looked around and saw Haku and Zabuza standing beside a random tree.

"Hey guys! Haku-sensei! Zabuza-sensei!" I yelled while running towards them. Their eyes got so wide because they already know what's about to come.

I tackled them and ended up falling with an oof on the hard ground.

"Ugh. What was that for?" Zabuza asked.

"Well, from now on, you will stay with us! YIPEE!" I stood up and did my happy dance, which is wiggling my butt around and punching the air upwards. That made them sweatdrop.

"I did regret saying that......" Haku whispered to himself. He must be talking about what he said to me during the fight. I caught that 'cause I got strong senses, but didn't bother to comment whatsoever. I just smirked a bit, knowing that I was right.

Anyway, one more person to hug.

"Hey hey Sasuke!!" Naruto called out while wiggling his eyebrows at the duck.

"Don't you wanna' hug my sis here?" He asked him and I noticed Sasuke's face get a little redder, but immediately turned his head the other way, so we don't kinda' see his face that much.

"Dobe." He said.

"Hahahha! Why didn't you say no? Ha! You want to hug her!" Naruto exclaimed, teasing Sasuke.

"Shut up, baka." He replied.

"Woah, nice comeback, dude." I muttered sarcastically, but I think that he heard me because he turned his head and glared daggers at me.

"A hug won't be that bad, right? I mean, I missed you guys so much." I said while walking towards Sasuke.

"Well, can I?"

..... No answer........ Well, that means yes. His hands are in his pockets and his head is turned away from me so I really can't see his face, but whatever!

I hugged him by the neck and felt him stiffen a little.

"Let go of me." He said, annoyed.

"No." I argued back.

"Let. Go."

"No."

"I said to let go."

"I said no."

"Let go now or else-!"

"Or else what?"

He sighed in defeat and hugged me back, but slowly. Well, that was unexpected. I mean, I thought that he would just let me hug him after I said that, but to hug me back? Wow. Just wow. Maybe my awesomeness told him so. Anyway, I can feel Sakura's death glare. I can sense it. Lol.

"Don't do that again, Rinn. You made us really worried." Woah! I didn't know that the Emo Duck-butt has a heart.

"Of course, ducky." I said.

After our little hugging fest..... Wait! I must hug Inari!

I ran towards the kid and hugged him, carrying him in the process for he was small.

"Goodbye, Rinn-chan!" He cheerfully said to me while I put him down. Oh yes! If you're curious how Inari knows me even if I was with Haku and Zabuza before, well, after the commotion awhile ago, they introduced me to Inari and Tsunami. It was fun to see them. Also, Inari smiled at me! Gosh. We're gonna' be best buddies for real!!

"Goodbye, Inari." I said, and kissed his forehead. He is soooo cute! Actually, we are leaving now. The bridge is finished and Tazuna named it The Great Uzumaki Bridge. Kinda' awesome! It was supposed to be The Great Naruto Bridge, but I prefered Uzumaki, with no one knowing but me and Tazuna, of course.

-HOURS LATER-

We arrived at Konoha and I immediately held Sasuke and Naruto's hand.

"Let's go eat some ramen! My treat! Sakura and Kaka-sensei! Come with us!" I called one of my blood clones, I mean two, and in a second, they are already in front of me.

Remember the 10 blood clones I made? I told you that they aren't gonna' disappear!! And they are like.... Just roaming around town. Anyway, my clone held Kakashi and Sakura's hand. The other one held Zabuza and Haku's hand. Then, we dragged them all to Ichiraku Ramen. No choice!

"Hahahha! Since you called us here, you must treat us, too!" My clones said with a smirk.

"The fudge?! No way!" I yelled back at them.

"Rinn versus Rinn #2 and Rinn #3. Totally normal." I heard Naruto mutter to himself. They ordered their bowls of ramen and I have no choice but to treat my two fudgin' troublesome clones. Nevermind. I stared at Kakashi-sensei, hoping to see his face. He noticed me and decided NOT to EAT, and reads his book instead. He was also about to leave, causing an angry mark/anime vein to appear on my forehead.

"EAT YOUR RAMEN BEFORE I SLICE THAT FUDGIN' BOOK INTO PIECES AND THROW IT IN THE FIRE AND WATCH IT BURN!!!!!" I yelled with flames in my eyes and he just sweatdropped.

"I'm not hungry."

"I'm not asking you if you're hungry or not!"

"Then why are you making me eat this ramen?"

"Because I want you to!"

"I already told you that I'm not hungry."

"I already told you that I'm not asking you if you're hungry or not!"

"Then why on earth are you making me eat this ramen?!"

"BECAUSE I WANT YOU TO!!!"

"I TOLD YOU THAT I'M NOT HUNGRY!!!"

"I TOLD YOU THAT I'M NOT ASKING YOU IF YOU'RE HUNGRY OR NOT!!!"

"THEN STOP MAKING ME EAT THIS RAMEN!!!"

"JUST EAT THE FUDGIN' THING!!!"

"I'M NOT HUNGRY!!!"

"JUST EAT IT!!!"

"I TOLD YOU THAT I'M NOT HUNGRY!!!"

"I TOLD YOU TO JUST EAT THE FUDGIN' THING!!!"

"BUT I TOLD YOU THAT I'M NOT HUNGRY!!!"

"UGH!!! IF YOU COULD'VE JUST ATE THE FUDGIN' THING THEN THIS WOULDN'T BE HAPPENING AT THE FIRST PLACE!!!"

"IF YOU COULD'VE JUST LET ME NOT TO EAT THEN THIS WOULDN'T BE HAPPENING AT ALL!!!"

"YOU MUST EAT!!!"

"WHY!?!?!?"

"BECAUSE YOU HAVE NO CHOICE!!! I TREATED ALL OF YOU AND YOU MUST EAT YOUR PART!!!!"

"I'M.NOT.HUNGRY!!!"

"JUST.EAT.THE.FUDGIN'.THING!!!"

I noticed that my face is already red from anger. Me and Kakashi-sensei are already facing each other and there is a good 1-inch gap between his face and mine.

"EAT.IT.KAKASHI-SENSEI."

"I'M.NOT.HUNGRY."

"IS THAT ALL YOU CAN THINK OF!?!?"

"YES BECAUSE IT'S TRUE!!"

"I DON'T CARE!!! JUST EAT THE FUDGIN' THING!"

"I'M NOT HUNGRY!"

"UGH!!"

"YOU JUST WANT TO SEE MY FACE!!"

"Got that right!!!"

"Ugh..."

"Eat now!"

"No way."

"Yes way."

"I'm not hungry."

"I just wanna' see your face!"

"I don't want you to see it!"

"Why? You're ugly?"

"....."

"Ha! Maybe you are!"

"N-No, I'm not."

"Lies!!!"

"S-Shut up!"

He walked away. Then, as for me.... 3..... 2.... 1.

I burst out laughing.

"Pfft! Hahahahahahahaha! Score!" After that very long arguement, I honestly didn't expect that I would win. Anyway, when he was out of sight, I ate Kakashi's supposed-to-be ramen and noticed Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura, Zabuza, Haku, Teuchi, and his daughter (I forgot her name!) staring at me. The others do it while eating their ramen though.

-THE NEXT DAY-

I yawned, scratching my back. Naruto woke me up awhile ago and after we did our morning routine, we went to the place where we will meet. Now, I'm waiting for Kakashi-sensei while Naruto and Sasuke do their daily glaring contest.

-MINUTES LATER-

I'm walking home when I saw......

"Kankuro! Temari!" I screamed in joy, running towards them, and well.... Hugging them, and sending the three of us on the ground.

I realized what I did and immediately ran away.

Naruto's POV

After Sakura smacked Konohamaru, well, you know what happened next. The four of us are currently running because Sakura-chan is chasing us. Konohamaru suddenly halted when he bumped on a strange-looking guy. He is wearing an all-black kitten-like suit and has a purple make-up on his face, a some sort of mummy is strapped on his back, too. That guy held Konohamaru by the scarf around his neck.

"Hey! What was that for?! That hurts you know!!" He yelled.

"Hey, let go of him!"

"Another brat?!"

"....."

I'm not a brat! How dare he say that?! Anyway, when I was about to say something, I suddenly saw Rinn appear in front of us, more like fall because she did fall...... From the sky with a thud. That made Kankuro drop Konohamaru.

"Rinn?" I called out in curiosity, also concerned, I mean, she landed on her back and I know that that must hurt. Really bad. I sighed when she slowly went into a sitting position on the ground.

"What was that, Rinn? What are you doing?"

"Oh hiya', brother! I was just..... Walking on air...."

"...."

"I mean, I'm practicing! Just practicing!"

"What are you practicing about?"

"I'm practicing walking on air!"

I sighed at her lame excuse and noticed that the back of her head is bleeding. It's because of her yellow/blonde hair. It's pretty easy to see if her head is bleeding or not.

"Ri-!"

"Hey! What was that?!" She loudly asked at the strange man.

"What do you mean what was that?!"

"You were holding a boy by the neck!"

"Well, he started it!"

"He just accidentally bumped on you, dummy!"

"How did you know that?"

"...."

"You weren't here awhile ago."

"It's because I'm just so awesome like that!"

"Wha- Hey, you were the one that hugged me minutes ago, right?"

"What?!" I asked in disbelief , surprising them and making them jump.

"Hey, it was not me!" Rinn defended, returning to the arguement they started not so long ago, totally ignoring me and my little reaction.

"It was you!"

"It was not me! You are making a BIG mistake!"

"I can't be wrong! It was you!"

"Maybe that girl just looks a lot like me!"

"No! That girl has yellow/blonde hair just like you!"

"There are so many people with yellow/blonde hair like me!"

"That girl also wears the same clothing you're wearing now!"

"Maybe it was just your imagination!"

"No! I can't be wrong!"

"Yes, you can!"

"It was you!"

"No, it was not me!"

"Quiet!" I screamed, completely annoyed and irritated, pulling my hair, too.

"What is this all about, sister?!" I asked, more like yelled.

"She is your sister?!" The guy asked, shocked. I ignored him, waiting for the answer of Rinn.

Rinn's POV

I ran away, right? Before our arguement, I was actually riding a giant bird, it was like a bus-sized bird. I made one of my blood clones transform into that bird, but when I was following Kankuro, or more like stalking him from above....

The bird poofed and I fell straight onto the fudgin' hard ground on my back! Anyway, I am thinking of a lame excuse again because Naruto is kinda' confused.

"Well?" He asked, impatiently tapping his foot on the ground, making me stiffen a little.

"Uhh.... You see, brother, while I was practicing walking on air......... Uhmmm... Using chakra..... I saw him and thought that he looked kinda' suspicious, so I followed him just to make sure that he isn't going to cause any.... Trouble... Or something."

"But my walking on air failed, and I fell on the ground in front of you. I don't know what he was talking about though. A girl hugging him thing." Total lie. Nahh'. I don't care. Anyway, he looked at me, not pleased by my answer or reason, but as I said, I don't care.

"It was you! I'm sure of it!"

"It was just your fudgin' imagination!"

"Yeah yeah! You and your lame excuses!"

I gasped sarcastically.

"How did you know?!"

"See?! It was you all the time."

"Yeah, whatever."

"How did you know my name anyway?"

"You are kinda' popular, soo yah'."

"Really?"

"Yeah."

"How about Temari?"

"She is popular, too!"

"Hold it! Hooooooold it! Who is this Temari guy and what's about you being popular??!" Naruto asked, holding his head in frustration.

"Oh! The sand siblings are kinda' popular! How come you didn't know about that?!" I asked, grinning nervously while sweating.

"Uhhh..... No. Are they that popular? Why is it that I don't know about them then?" He asked, more calmly this time.

"You are just not that updated." I said, folding my arms on my chest.

"Whaaaaa-?" He trailed off, scratching his head.

I sighed. Our talk got a little long sooo I didn't notice Sasuke already sitting on the branch where I expected him to be.

"Sorry, Sas-gay! But your show-off moment disappeared because the awesome Rinn is here!"

Sasuke glared daggers at me after I said that, but did I get stabbed? Nope! Because just as I said, the awesome Rinn is here and that's me.

"Kankuro, stop it or else I'll kill you." Gaara said. Wait.... Gaara!!!!!!!

He appeared in front of us using sand.

"G-Gaara, l-let me e-explain."

3....

"Shut up."

2.....

"Sorry for the trouble he caused."

1...

"GAARA!!!!!!!!" I literally screamed while running towards him, and when I was about to hug him, sand blocked my way. You know what? I just smacked on that fudgin' thing, causing me to fall on the ground with a thud.

"Ow...." I mumbled while holding my thigh. I am currently in front of the almighty Gaara and there is a good 5-inch space between us. I'm still sitting on the ground though. Wait..... Uh oh. Now, he is staring at me.

"Hehehe.... Sorry 'bout that, Gaara. I can't contro' myself sometimes." I said in a different accent. Hahahha. Awesome, right? Anyway, I stood up and held my hand out for him to shake it.

"Anyway, hi there! I'm Rinn! Nice to meet you, Gaara-chan!" I exclaimed in my cheerful voice while giving him a close-eyed smile (which I found out very embarrasing in real life hahhaha). I looked at him, I mean stared. I am slightly taller than him by 1 inch. Yeah, he is small, right? Anyway, his kanji for love is still etched on his forehead. He is eyebrow-less, too. New word! Hahahha! He is still sooooo cute! Well, for me he is. He is cool and awesome as well. Back to the present time. After our staring contest, which lasted for 3 minutes, I cleared my throat.

"Don't you know how to shake hands with someone?" Kankuro, along with the others, simply stared at me, worried and frightened. Yeah, I know that they think of Gaara as a MONSTER, but to me, he is not.

"I will show you how then!" I said cheerfully while walking towards Kankuro and stopping in front of him.

"Watch, okay?" I didn't wait for a nod or a yes anymore.

"Hi! I'm Rinn! Nice to meet you, Kankuro!" I greeted while holding my hand out.

"Just shake it!" I whisper-yelled at him while forcefully grinning.

"Uhh.... Yeah! Nice to meet you too, Rinn!" He replied nervously while shaking my hand. After a few minutes, I cleared my throat, noticing that Kankuro hasn't let go of my hand yet. He soon realized it and let go, immediately turning around. I don't know why though.

Kankuro's POV

I let go of her hand and suddenly turned around. Why? My cheeks are burning! I sighed, knowing that I'm blushing so hard from embarrasment. Anyway, the way she talks to Gaara will be the end of her.

Rinn's POV

I walked towards Gaara again and stopped in front of him.

"Now, let's start all over!"

"Hi! I'm Rinn! Nice to meet you, Gaara-chan!" I said while holding my hand out. Be patient. He will surely shake my hand! He must learn to do things!

Gaara's POV

This girl. She is very different from the others. Doesn't she know that I can kill people in seconds? With no mercy?

I just stared at her hand. She is so cheerful and kinda' special. Unique. She is not afraid of me. Not even for a bit. It's also not just that. Mother. Mother is quiet when she is around me. Mother is not mad nor angry and my bloodlust suddenly vanishes. When she is right there, it feels like I don't want to kill anymore.

I kept on hesitating whether to shake her hand or not, but after a few minutes of staring, I sighed in defeat and slowly did shake her hand.

Rinn's POV

His hand is rough. Maybe because he is still in his sand armor. I didn't let go of his hand though.

"Can we be friends?" I asked nicely. Wait for it.

Silence. I hate that thing!

"Umm.... Are you okay?" I asked, noticing that he looks.... Constipated? I was about to put my hand on his forehead just to see if he is ill or has a fever or something, but....

"Don't touch me." He said menacingly.

"Okay! Just take good care of yourself! I don't want you to be ill and also don't want your siblings to worry. So ummm...." I trailed off, searching for the right words.

"Don't you worry, Gaara! If you need help or anything, I'll be right here! Don't be afraid to talk to me if you have problems, okay?"

"Let's go." He said to his siblings, ignoring me. That made me frown a bit, but didn't let anyone see it. I remembered someone saying to me that frowning makes people ugly. Of course, an awesome person doesn't want to turn ugly!!

"Wait! What's your name?" Sasuke asked, landing swiftly on the ground from the tree.

"Me?" Temari asked, getting her hopes a little too high.... Oh! I didn't notice her with Kankuro awhile ago. Hahahha.

"No. The one with the gourd."

"I'm Gaara of the Sand."

"Sasuke, Sasuke, Sasuke, I kept on repeating his name awhile ago. Are you deaf?" I asked, making him glare at me.

"I'm also interested in you. What's your name?" Gaara asked. Oh my gosh. He is deaf, too! Go and join the parade of deafs!

"Sasuke Uchiha." The mentioned guy said with a smirk.

"Hey hey! I bet you're interested in me, too!" Naruto cheered with a grin.

"I couldn't care less." He said while walking away.

"This is my brother, Naruto! Naruto Uzumaki! The next hokage! Believe it!" I yelled, appearing behind Gaara afterwards. He didn't expect it though.

"Goodbye. I hope we can be good friends." I whispered while hugging him from behind. I did that in a mere second, so he didn't have the time to use his sand. I also felt him stiffen and before he can even kill me, I disappeared. I reappeared in my house and climbed out of the window, towards the roof. I sat there and watched the sunset. I will CHANGE you. Gaara.

I saved Haku and Zabuza. Next is changing Gaara's way of seeing the world.

-THE NEXT DAY-

After me and Naruto did our morning routine, I, along with him, went to the meeting place where we will meet Kakashi. Minutes later, Kaka-sensei arrived. He gave us some papers. I can't really read what the fudgin' paper says because the words in it are all written in Japanese! But I know that this is for the Chunin Exams.

"I joined the four of you in the Chunin Exams, but only a group of three or two are allowed to participate. I need to divide the four of you." I grinned.

"Hey! Kakashi-sensei! Let the three of them join as a group! I can handle myself! No need to equally divide us!"

"W-What?! There's no way I'm letting you go on by your own!" My concerned brother said.

"Pfft! That will be just a piece of cake, brother! Don't worry about me! I will still stay with you three, but I will.... Uhmmm... Join on my own!"

They sighed in defeat and.....

CHUNIN EXAMS HERE I COME!!!
