Chapter 7: A Normal Day

 

Kira slipped her last kunai into her pouch and walked out of her bedroom. Her life was just about back to normal. Her training with Kakashi ended a few days ago but instead of training with Mitsukake she was back with Resha and her original team. After training with Kakashi she realized that teamwork is a major thing in the ninja world and requested to go back with her teammates. Kira walked down the hall and opened the door to one of the guest rooms in her house. Mitsukake was sprawled out on top of the bed sleeping; this was a normal thing. Mitsukake spent a lot of nights over her house. She walked in the room and stood next to him.

She bent down to his head and said, “Mitsukake wake up. Come on.” Kira shook him a little

“Mmmm.” Mitsukake opened one eye, “What?”

“I'm leaving to go train now.”

“Okay.” He said as he rolled over

“That means you have to get up too!” Kira said as she threw the covers off of him

Mitsukake sat straight up and look at Kira.

“What the hell!”

“It's time to get up! You're a jounin, you have to go out and do whatever you jounin do!”

“Damn it.” Mitsukake got out of bed, he was wearing his usual night wear; a t-shirt and boxers, “I curse the day I ever became a ninja.” He said under his breath

The two of them walked down the stairs and into the kitchen.

“You're still wearing those boots?” He asked

“Ya, I never realized how comfortable they were.”

Mitsukake sat down at the table and rubbed his face.

“How are things going with Resha and them?”

Kira sat down, “Things are going as good as expected.”

“That bad?”

“Yea but I have a plan.”

“What's that?”

“I'm gonna talk to them.”

“What happened, getting into fights doesn't work anymore?”

“Pretty much.”

“Hey Kira.”

“Ya?”

“You didn't hear anything last night, did you?”

“No, why?”

“Just wondering.” Mitsukake looked out the window

After Mitsukake got home from his mission the Hokage told him the incidents with Yukiro that had occurred, ever since then he has been extra protective over Kira. He has spent every night over her house and hasn't spent much time over his house with his family.

“My mom wants me to eat dinner at my house today.” He looked back at Kira

Mitsukake's parents aren't ninja, they own a small food shop in town.

“So, go ahead. It is your house.”

“You won't mind?”

“No.”

“Why don't you come too?”

“Mitsukake don't you think your mom would like a nice dinner with just your mom, dad, and you? I don't want to interfere.”

“You won't.”

“Fine.”

I know you don't really want to come over but I'm NOT leaving you alone. I wasn't here to protect you last time and I swore to myself that will never happen again!

Kira stood up, “Breakfast is on the stove and your vest is on the clothes line. It should be dried.”

“Okay.”

Kira grabbed a few more things on the counter and hugged Mitsukake goodbye.

“See ya! And don't forget to lock the door when you leave!”

“I know.”

Kira closed the door and began to walk to the meeting place. As she was walking through the center of town she saw a familiar face.

It is him!

“Hey Sasuke!”

Sasuke continued to walk acting like he hadn't heard her call.

“Asshole.” Kira ran to catch up with him, “Hey Sasuke!” she called again

Oh great. I thought I was done seeing this girl. Sasuke thought

“Hey what's up?”

“I'm going to training.” Sasuke didn't stop walking; forcing Kira to walk alongside of him

“Really me too! How is everyone?”

“Fine.”

“So um…How have you been?”

Sasuke looked at Kira.

“I mean when I last saw you…You weren't doing so well.”

Sasuke realized she was talking about her jutsu and he stopped dead in his tracks and began to stare her down.

“Listen, shut up about your stupid jutsu got it!”

“O-Ok-okay.”

Sasuke continued walking, even faster in hopes of losing Kira.

“You know I wasn't just referring to my jutsu. I haven't seen you in a few days and normal people ask how people they know are doing just for the hell of it.”

“But you still referred to it.”

“Well…Kind of. I never felt such power and pain before. It kind of intrigued me.” Kira looked at Sasuke and smiled

“Pain amuses you…Strange.” Sasuke smirked

Kira hit Sasuke in the arm, “Not like that you idiot!”

“Whatever.”

“Incase you were wondering I'm back training with my original team, not Mitsukake.”

“I wasn't wondering.”

“Oh.”

Kira was running out of things to say, Sasuke was just ending every conversation she tried to start. They walked in silence for a few more minutes when Kira realized she had to leave to go to her meeting place, she was walking right past it!

With Rena and Kosuke:

“Hey Rena, look its Kira and look who she's walking with.”

“WHAT!!! She's walking WITH SASUKE!!!!”

“Chill out.”

Rena turned to look at Kosuke, “She is walking with my future husband and you're telling me to relax!”

“Well it looks like your hubby's having an affair.” Kosuke said jokingly

“Shut up! I will not stand for this!” Rena stormed off in the direction of Kira and Sasuke

With Kira and Sasuke:

“Well I better get going. Don't wanna be late.”

Finally she's leaving. Sasuke thought

“Hey Kira!”

Kira recognized the voice calling her name and stopped walking, “Oh no!”

Sasuke stopped walking too and looked at Kira who was staring at a purple-haired kunoichi jogging towards them.

“I'd advise you to leave.” Kira said to Sasuke

But it was too late Rena came over to the pair and gave an evil look to Kira.

“Hey Sasuke! How are you?”

“Do I know you?”

“Haha, don't be silly of course you do!”

“You're trying so hard it's pathetic.” Kira said

“What did you say to me?” Rena walked over to Kira and whispered in her ear, “Listen you little loser I'd keep my mouth closed if I was you.”

“Ya, well you're not me.”

“And thank-god for that.”

“And what's wrong with being me!”

“Well you're ugly, dumb, and the loneliest pathetic loser I have ever seen!” Rena said she was no longer whispering so that everyone around her-including Sasuke heard what she was saying

“Shut up! I'm not lonely!”

“Ya right, cause your wakkado mother is such great company!”

“Shut up.” Said a cold voice

Rena turned around to see Sasuke there looking at her with eyes full of hate and anger.

“S-Sasuke...ha…ha.”

“I would just shut up if I was you, because Kira probably does have a better life than you. Anything's better than being annoying trash like you.” Sasuke stared at Rena

Rena's eyes began to swell with tears; she turned around and ran back to where Kosuke was still standing.

“Sasuke…Thanks.”

“People like her annoy me.”

“Thanks again. Now I have to go face them yay for me.” Kira slowly walked to where she saw her two teammates waiting, Rena with a look of pure disgust on her face.

I don't know why he did it. I never though he would stand up for me…I doubt he even realized that he did. But I'm glad he did. Kira thought

Kira joined her team; they are waiting outside of a bookstore that Resha's aunt and uncle own. Kira leaned up against the building watching the roads to see if her sensei was anywhere near them.

“Rena will you wipe that look off of your face?” Kosuke said, “Training hasn't even started yet, can't you control your temper?”

“I can have whatever look on my face I want.”

Kira glanced at Rena she was staring right at her with the look that she wanted to kill her.

I can see this is going to be another typical day of training. Kira thought

POOF

Resha appeared, “Hey you three.” Resha has dirty blonde hair that reached the middle of her back and blue eyes. She was wearing typical jounin attire: blue ninja sandals, loose grey capri-pants, a pale yellow shirt, her headband around her neck, and the green ninja vest.

Rena looked at her students. Rena and Kosuke were standing next to each other while Kira was standing apart from them with her back facing them.

I can see today will be no better.

“Follow me we're going to be doing a new exercise today.”

The four ninja walked away from the bookstore and out into the training grounds.

“Okay here we are.” Resha stopped walking and faced her students she did a series of quick hand signs, “Earth style: Vine prison jutsu!”

“What!” Kira yelled

Green vines came up out of the ground and wrapped around the three genin. No matter how much they struggled they couldn't get free or reach their weapons or make hand signs.

“Okay here the deal. I'm sick of you three fighting all of the time! The other jounin think you guys are a joke! And I will not have my team be called pathetic! So I'm done! We're going to get to the bottom of your issues so you three can start working together like a team!” Resha motioned her hand and vines crawled up Rena and Kosuke and covered their mouths.

Resha sat down on the ground, “Kira you mentioned a while ago that you learned something from Kakashi. Why don't you elaborate?”

“Well…” Kira looked at her teammates, “I know you guys really started having issues with me after the chuunin exams because you blame me for the fact that we failed. But you know what…you should be glad that we flunked out at the first phase because judging from the little Mitsukake told me about the second phase is that it all depends on teamwork and survival. And we might have died out there! In exams ninja don't go easy on you! When its life or death you need to be able to depend on your teammates, and the only thing we can count on each other doing, is finding someway to desert each other and get the other one seriously hurt or killed!”

Resha moved a vine over Kira's mouth and moved a vine away from Rena's mouth.

“I have nothing to say!”

“So be it. Kosuke?”

“I…I…I agree with Kira.” Rena turned to face him, “I wanna become a great jounin, but I can't do that if I can't even become a chuunin because of my team refuses to work together.”

“Kosuke is right. You three will never make it in the ninja world unless you learn to work together. Release!”

The vines around the three genin disappeared back into the earth.

“Hey Kira.” Rena said

“Yea?”

“Listen…umm…yea. Need anyone to be on your side for the drill we might do today?”

“I think I just might.”

Later that day:

Kira walked into her house to see Mitsukake sitting on her couch watching TV.

“Hey what's up?” He asked

Kira slowly walked over to the couch and plopped down on it and placed her head on Mitsukake's lap causing him to blush slightly.

“How was training?”

“Surprisingly really good!” Kira sat up, “We talked. Came to an agreement.”

“What's that?”

“Well we're a team together weather we like it or not and we have to start acting like it. We don't have to start hanging out or acting like best friends, we just have to have each other's back in missions, get along, and help each other out in mission and training.”

“You really think that will work for more than a day.”

“I might not but I hope it does. I had such a good day!” Kira said as she got off the couch and walked into the kitchen

“Making peace with your enemies does make for a good day.” Mitsukake said as he followed her

“Plus Sasuke stood up for me!”

“Who's Sasuke?” Mitsukake asked with a hint of envy in his voice

“You know Uchiha Sasuke he's on Kakashi's team. The boy with raven hair and onyx eyes?”

“Oh ya him. So what.”

“I just though…that it was really nice of him that's all.” Kira blushed slightly, “Well I'm gonna shower up and get ready to go to your house for dinner tonight okay?”

“I'm not stopping you. I'm going out okay.”

“Where are you going?”

“Out.” Mitsukake walked over to the door and slammed the door behind him

“What's up with him?” Kira asked herself

That night:

It was early in the morning. The moon was still high in the sky blanketing Konoha in its silver rays, the wind gently caressing the landscape. Kira's in her room sleeping, stands of her long brown hair covering her face. She wore her usual night attire of pale blue shorts and a white t-shirt. It was an unusual warm night so she left her window open to let in the fresh cool breeze, her white curtains danced as the wind flowed through them. But someone was watching the peaceful teen sleep. The ninja quietly jumped onto her window sill and stepped into her room. The shadow walked over to her bed and rubbed the back of his hand on her cheek.

“Mmm.” Kira moaned in her sleep when she felt the cool hand placed on her warm cheek

The ninja removed his hand and took out a kunai held it up to his face and looked at Kira. The ninja smirked and slowly lowered the kunai to Kira's neck. As soon as the kunai was a few inches from her neck Kira's eyes shot open.

“AAAHHHHHHHHH!” Kira flung the covers off of her and leaped out of bed

Kira glanced around her room but saw nothing.

I saw it! The ninja was there…I saw him AND sensed him!

“What's wrong!”

“AHHHHH!” Mitsukake burst through Kira's door in his boxers and t-shirt scaring the already frightened Kira

“Someone came in my room! He had a kunai or something! Someone tried to attack me!” Kira ran over to Mitsukake

He grabbed Kira by the shoulders and pulled her in close to his body.

“Are you okay?” He asked

“Ya.”

Mitsukake let her go and walked over to the window and stuck his head out to; giving up to the fact that he could no longer sense anything he came back in the room and closed the window and locked it.

“Keep these closed from now on.”

“Mitsukake…”

“Come on.” He took Kira's hand, held it tight and looked into Kira's frightened eyes

“Sleep in my bed tonight.”

“Where will you sleep?”

“On the floor by your bed.”

“Thanks Mitsukake.”

Mitsukake wrapped his arm around Kira's shoulders and lead her out of the room but not before looking over his shoulder at the window one more time. He would be sure to report this to the Hokage right away in the morning.
