Naruto: Rule 63

"What? Am I not allowed be here?" Takatsumi giggled. The boy in front of her was really interesting. That eyes, that tone, that face... Everything. Suddenly, it started to rain. Still with her smile, Takatsumi spun her umbrella playfully. 

"....This is her rain, isn't it?" Shiha asked his twin.
"It might be.." Takemi shrugged, "however, we have nothing to do with this. Takatsumi is dangerous and you know it, brother."
"And also Suzumu-kun.." Shiha said in whispers.
"Huh?"
Silent for a moment, Shiha looked up at the dark sky. "I'm going to watch them for afar.. I don't mind of getting slapped by okaa-sama later. So, just go home, onee-sama.." and he jumped up roof to roof, hiding behind a balcony in the end.

[[ sudden urge to draw suzumu in the rain lksagjakkfdlaj ]]

Suzumu glanced up at the sky then back at Takatsumi. "This isn't natural rain, is it?" he spoke. "You know rather than watching people, why don't you just go find this friend of yours?"

[[ i just realized now... brother??? ]]

Shiko did not reply immediately as she took a small black notebook from the waitresses. "Maybe you should try not to hurt him every time you run into him?" she mused aloud as she tucked something in between the book and setting it on the side of the table. "You might actually be scaring him off, don't you think? You should know him more, you are teammates after all..." she added. Daisuru just sat there in her silence.

(I forgot where we are in the timeline... >_> 

Katsa pouted. "But... he... It's so hard to get his attention... All he cares about is food and that stupid wolf of his." She was wrong, of course, but she didn't know that. She looked at the flower encased in glass and tried to remember what that color did what it was broken, but she couldn't. "I'm surprised he gave you that... Michio put a lot of effort into making those."

(Aaaaaand I don't know what to type anymore ._.)

[...why am I imagining sexy suzume instead...? slap me, I don't mind..]

"Oh~ How did you know, shounen?" Takatsumi asked back. "Well.." she glanced a bit, "maybe later since I'm dealing with something more interesting.. right now~" she spun her umbrella again, this time a bit covering her face.

Shiha was observing them. He was not scared of the atmosphere around them. If usually he would just jump in randomly, this time he would not. He did not want to take an action randomly based on nothing. His sensei taught him not to be reckless when it comes to dangerous thing, whatever it is.

[wut about brother...?]

[[ suzume is too moe to be sexy ]]

Suzumu's expression remained unchanged as he simply stared at the woman in front of him. He could already spot Shiha standing elsewhere from the corner of his eyes. "Oh? And what would that be?"

[[ who's the brother? :? 

also err ripley it's uh, before chuunin exams?? ]]

"So I guess the saying 'the quickest way to a man's heart is through is stomach' applies very well to him." Dairusu spoke with a smirk on her face. Shiko laughed, "Very funny, Daisuru." she said, picking up the encased flower. "Well, he seemed to want to pay me back pretty badly so I couldn't turn it down." she told the girl sitting across them.

Shiko looked at the flower in silence, as she held it in her hands. Suddenly, a layer of solid ice surrounded the object. "There, I think that should make it less breakable." she mused aloud.

[sexy moe... f..my brain...]

Takatsumi closed her umbrella and pointed it to Suzumu, "should you know more?"

I can't hear anything... Damn Takatsumi and her rain... cursed Shiha in his head.

[Takemi called Shiha "brother" instead of his name..]

[[ no, i mean, takatsumi kept saying "brother"?? 
i am confuzzled ]]

"I'm not really one for games, Takatsumi-chan." Suzumu spoke, tilting his head to the side a bit. "Please to tell me." he joked. Sorta joked. No one can really tell when he jokes or not. Anyway.

"There you are, Suzumu. I've been looking everywhere for you." a voice spoke. Suzumu turned his gaze to the person standing a few meters behind Takatsumi. "Kumino-sensei." he greeted, locking eyes with the Hyuuga.

[[ idk how to genderbend names sakghkjsd ]]

[Oh, Saitou? No, I didn't change his gender since.. I won't use him here anyway =A=... And it's too troublesome to think of his name..]

"Ara..ara.." Takatsumi opened her umbrella again, "your sensei has come..." and whispered, "to save you?" she smiled and turned her head to see Kumino. "Good afternoon," she greeted casually.

[[ no faaaiiiirrrr ]]

Kumino gave the girl a deadpanned look. "Oh, no wonder that chakra seemed familiar." he spoke calmly, before smiling at the Hijikata, "I see you haven't aged, still young and beautiful, aren't we?" he said, "Though you probably don't remember someone like me, anyway." he added as he disappeared and reappeared behind Suzumu, putting a hand on the boy's shoulder. "I must excuse my student; we have to go visit a shrine today."

"Ah, that was today?" Suzumu mused aloud, not even turning around to face his sensei.

[ok.. ok.. =A=... change to sister then..? ..oh great.. what is his name..]

Takatsumi blinked for a moment, "where did we meet again?" she turned her head as Kumino transferred behind Suzumu. "me? Beautiful? What a compliment~ or was it a sacrasm?" she giggled. "Shrine huh..?" narrowing her wicked eyes at the guys in front of her, she made this curious expression. 
"Please don't be late for your prayer." Despite of her curiosity, she tilted her head while smiling, willing to let them go just like that.

"Ha..." Shiha made this sick expression on her face. "Kumino-sensei.. your joke is hilarious..." he mumbled to himself.

[...cannot imagine kumiko says that to Takasugi.... handsome and wut..]

(That's what I thought... just checking... Katsuo isn't so stupid later on so I was wondering if I should keep going with that >_> )

Katsa tilted her head, curious about the layer of ice that had formed over the glass. "How did you do that? You didn't even use hand signs." 

(I don't know what to do ._. Sorry.)

[[ how do you think i did with all mine lsfhkjasdla ]]

"That was a bit too long ago, Hijikata-san. I was quite younger then too, you probably might not remember well enough." Kumino said, smiling mysteriously, "I just happen to remember faces; especially one such as yours." the Hyuuga told Takatsumi. 

"I would stay for a chat but I do prefer keeping our schedule. So, if you would excuse us..." Kumino made seal. Suzumu only raised a hand to say goodbye to the Hijikata before both disappeared from sight.


[[ that's cause you don't even know her~~
Kumiko is a flatterer xD
there's one part in the story, team9 would have been assigned to escort this noble who has an uncanny resemblance to fuyu and she's like "i've never seen such beauty" while fuyu was just standing there ]]


"Oh." Shiko hummed as she tucked away her the crystallized flower in her pack. "Well... let's just say it's... a family thing." she explained. She wasn't really up to telling her lifestory to anyone. That and it would probably sound so disturbing to most people. She stood up from her seat with a smile, "We should go walk around now; we might be disrupting the business if we stay at the table too long." she said, almost jokingly, as she walked away from the table. 

"C'mon, Katsa." Daisuru called, tapping the girl on her shoulder as she followed after her teammate.

[[ alhfsa i cant move midori and fuyuki without jiwa ]]

Katsa wasn't really in the mood for following people around, but she followed them anyway. "So... where are we going, exactly? Or are we just walking around?"

"Well~" Takatsumi made a handseal to stop the rain, "what a nice guy..." as the rain stopped she turned around and called, "waka, you can come out now."
Shiha facepalmed. "Yea, yea..." he came out while rolling his eyes. "Stop teasing Suzumu-kun, will you.. Stay away from him starting now."
Takatsumi only laughed, "what? jealousy?"
Shiha twitched ".................wanna die?" he grabbed his wakizashi.
It only made the girl laughed more, "stop it, waka," she said while waving her hand. 
Rolling his eyes again, Shiha just disappeared.

"Mostly walking around." Replied Shiko. "Unless, of course, you have someplace in mind. That would be nice too." she said, smiling towards Katsa as they walked.

"But personally, it's nice to walk around too, you know." said Daisuru.

"Dai-neechaaaan!" a young girl's voice called. The trio turned to the source of the voice and saw three kids, two girls and a boy, running towards the three -- or just Daisuru.

"Oooff-- you guys, whatare you doing out here?" spoke Daisuru as she gently pulled the boy off of her legs.



By the gates of the village, two new people arrived. o u o

"I guess so..." Katsa giggled at the small children as they ran up. "They're so cute! Are they all your siblings, Daisuru?" Katsa loved all children except for her younger brother. To her that child was the source of all evil.



Asami was with his wolf near the village gates o.o

"Huh, no. I don't exactly have a family." Daisuru replied plainly, kneeling in front of the two girls. "Kaiko, Hone, who told you guys to wander around the village?" she asked the two girls.

"Actually... Daisuru's an orphan." Shiko told Katsa in a quiet whisper. The little boy walked to Katsa, "Hi there! My name's Kiku! What's yours?" he asked the older girl.


[[ omg perf timing ]]

The younger silver-haired girl looked up as they passed the gates, "..."

"Something the matter, Raiko?" the red-headed girl spoke, pausing to look at her companion. "It's nothing, Hiromi-san." said the younger one, "I just haven't been here in Konoha before..." she added.

The Ketsueki chuckled, "Well, you should be able to be here more often then," she said, "I'd be visiting my brother more often now to check up on his progress..."

Katsa sighed. "That sounds like it would be so hard and so sad..." She smiled and crouched down in front of Kiku. "My name is Katsa. It's very nice to meet you." She held out her hand to shake Kiku's.



Asami's wolf found a smell that he didn't recognize and followed it. Asami didn't realize that the wolf had left until it was already smelling the newcomers up close. "Jace! Jace come back here," Asami called out but to no avail. He ran after Jace and grabbed the back of his neck to pull him away, but the wolf wouldn't let up.

"I'm so sorry," he muttered, "he can be really nosy sometimes."

(I don't know these people o.o Time to get to know them~
... wait...
RAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIII /shot)

[[ the orphans are just random kids Daisuke looks after in the orphanage, Kai, Hone and Kikuri. > w >
yeah and Hiromi is Hiroshi, Hitomi's (who is Shiro's sensei) older brother
oh and Rai lolololol ]]

"You get used to it." Daisuru replied to Katsa, looking back at Katsa.

"Nee-chan! Can't we just stay with you? You're rarely home!" the skinny-looking girl spoke. Kiku looked back towards Dairusu, "You know they're right, you always have mission and you don't even play with us anymore." he said. Daisuru sighed, "Hone, Kiku, don't get started with me." he told the two. Kaiko was quiet, as usual, since... she's mute.

"But nee-chan!" whined Hone, Kaiko was giving her these puppy dog eyes. Kiku turned back to Katsa, "Ne, ne! You're a friend of Daisuru-neechan right? Do you want to play with us too?"



Hiromi chuckled and kneeled in front of the wolf, "Ah, that's alright, shounen, I don't think he meant any harm." she said, patting the wolf on his head, "Dont' you think so too, Raiko?" the older girl looked up to the other.

"Huh, oh... yeah." Raiko replied quietly, looking up towards Asami. "Excuse us. We come from Kaze no kuni for a visit." she spoke, "This is Ketsueki Hiromi. My name is Mikaze Raiko." she said, bowing slightly as the girl next to her, Hiromi, stood up, "So what about you, shounen?" she spoke with a charming smile.

Katsa couldn't deny children that were so adorable. "Of course! As long as Daisuru is ok with it."



Asami released Jace's neck and allowed him to continue sniffing the strangers. Asami felt rather awkward that she had bowed to him... nobody had ever bowed to him before. He wasn't really the polite type either. "Me? I'm Katsu Asami and that's Jace. It's nice to meet you." He didn't know if he should bow as well or not, so instead he just held out a hand to shake one of theirs.

Daisuru sighed in defeat, "Alright, you little runts, we'll play. But later, since nee-chan just ate, okay?" she told the kids as she stood up. Hone and Kiku cheered while Kaiko clapped with a cheery smile on her face.

"And Shiko-neesan too!" Hone squeaked turning to the Mikaze with a hug. "Yeah, with Shiko-neesan too." Daisuru spoke as they started walking. Despite Daisuru's temperament, she was actually really good with the kids



"Asami, huh." Hiromi hummed. "Pleased to meet you~" she spoke, shaking the boy's hand. "Would you mind keeping my friend company while I look for my brother?" she asked suddenly.

Raiko tried to interrupt, "Ah..! Hiromi-sa--"

"Say, shounen, you don't happen to have seen my brother would you? Blonde hair, honey brown eyes, just a few inches shorter than me. He goes by the name Hitoshi; Namikaze Hitoshi." Hiromi asked quickly, not even giving the Mikaze a chance to speak.

Katsa turned to Kaiko and smiled. "Would you like a piggy-back ride?"

(I don't know what to do with her anymore ._.)

"I... I don't mind..." Asami scratched the back of his head. The last time he had taken a shower... maybe a few days ago. The closest thing he had to a bath was a swim in the lake a few hours earlier, so he hoped he didn't smell too bad. "That name... it sounds familiar. He's Shiko and Daisuru's sensei, right? They were talking about him earlier... But I don't know where he is, sorry." His mind wandered back to the girl. He doesn't know how to deal with girls! How long would he have to stay with her, anyway? He didn't know, but he wasn't exactly looking forward to embarrassing himself.

(For some reason my mind keeps wandering back to the old RP when Asami fell and Rai caught her. Now I just imagine Asami falling flat on his face.)

Kaiko nodded with a smile as she went up behind Katsa to climb on her back. "Ne! Katsa-nee! Where do you live?" Kiku suddenly asked.

"Kiku! You don't just ask people where they live!" Daisuru hushes. "Oh leave the boy be, Daisuru." Shiko said, waving dismissively at her friend.

[[ idk what to do with these two either .__. ]]

"Hmm..! Yes of course! My baby brother's students!" Hiromi nodded. "Mou~ looks like I really do need to look for him if that's the case~" Hiromi hummed before turning to her companion, "Raiko, I'll be out the whole afternoon whether I find Hitoshi or not so stay out of trouble. Meet you later by the administration building at sundown~" she told the silverette before vanishing out of sight.

The Mikaze didn't even have a chance to reply because she just left so quickly. "..." Raiko sighed before turning to Asami, "Forgive her, she tends to be too... quirky." she said.

[[ pfffttt poor thing xD ]]

Katsa knelt down to pick Kaiko up and kept walking. "No, it's ok, I don't really mind." She looked around. "Actually, I live near here. I don't think you would want to go there though, my family can be rather... intrusive."

(Just remembered that Katsuo's kekkai genkai is telepathy. I think. Mute girl is perfect <3)

"A-all afternoon?" Asami stuttered. What was he going to do with this girl all afternoon?! He turned to her rather awkwardly and didn't look her in the eyes. "So... do you have anywhere that you want to go? Have you been here before?"

Kaiko looked at Katsa curiously, before looking back at Daisuru with a curious look; as if she was asking "what does intrusive mean?"


[[ yeah i think you mentioned that once before xD ]]

Raiko shook her head in response. "No, this is my first visit here." she replied. "I don't know... would you have any suggestions, seeing as you are from here..."

[[ whered everybody go? ]]

ANYWAY
We find Hitoshi lurking-- err... wandering the village. Actually, now he's just standing in a random rooftop. "Hm... that rain a while ago was strange..." he muttered. "The person who triggered it is close..."

"Ototou-kun~" A voice called, almost startling the younger Ketsueki. "E-eh?? Onee-sama?" she voiced out as she turned to look around her. There was no one around, she could feel no presence -- of course she wouldn't. As gifted as Ketsuekis were with sensory abilities, they were excellent at hiding too.

"Over here, ototou-kun~" spoke Hiromi, appearing right in front of her younger brother. Hitoshi stepped back, "Please don't do that..."
