~Again.. Later...~
"Well!! That's done!" I shouted as I wiped the sweat from my forehead with my arm. Sasuke looked at me, paint all over his shirt. The clones accidentally tripped and spilled paint all over him. "Wow it's late!" I added. The wall was fixed! It looked alot better than before, because before, there was a huge, gaping, hole in the wall! Now, it's a wall once again! "Whoo.. I'm tired!" I sighed as I took off my bandana and ran up the stairs, into the bathroom, Sasuke was walking up the stairs. "Wait.. What am I doing here?" I thought aloud. I ran out of the bathroom and found myself staring at Sasuke, who didn't have a shirt on. "Uwahh!! I'm sorry!!" I shouted, my eyes spinning as I ran out of the room. Or, at least, I tried to run out of the room. Chihiro came out of nowhere and jumped on Sasuke, who was taken aback by surprize. "Cute boy!!" She yelled in his ear. I ran over to Chihiro and tried to pull her off, but no go. Chihiro suddenly jumped off of Sasuke, who was blushing madly, and pulled a pot and wooden spoon out of nowhere, she walked over to me with an angry expression as she crammed my head in the pot and banged on it with the wooden spoon. "Sasuke!! Help!" I yelled, my voice echoing within the pot, as Chihiro continued to bang. "Chihiro!! Get away from her!" I could hear Sasuke shout as he walked over and tried to withstrain my sister from damaging my hearing any further. Minutes passed by, and Chihiro was still banging on the pot. "Gyaa!!" I yelled from inside the pot, barely hearing my own voice. "Chihiro!! Stop it!" I could barely hear Sasuke say. The banging stopped and my ears were pounding. "Wha---" I stuttered as I twirled around and fell to the ground, the pot breaking in the process. I landed with my limbs spread out in all directions, with my eyes spinning. I slowly got to my feet and managed to stutter, "I'b okay!! I'b tough.. Like rock candy.. See?" I said standing for a moment, swaying in place... A moment later, I fell to the ground once more. "Why are da four ob you looking ab be like dat?" I asked, pushing myself up. I didn't hear anyone answer me. My vision finally returned to normal and I looked up at Sasuke and Chihiro, who were.. Were... KISSING? "What? Chihiro?" I shouted, my voice was slurred from my dizzyness. Sasuke was blushing madly as he glanced over at me and Chihiro's eyes were closed. It looks as though Chihiro made the first move and kissed him, instead of the other way around. "Chihiro-chan!" I shouted as she drew back from the kiss. "Hee hee!!" She giggled lightly as tears flodded to my eyes. I tried to run out, but Sasuke just grabbed my wrist. I tried to break free, but he was too strong. "Sasuke-kun! Aita (Ouch!!)!!" I cried out in Japanese, too afraid to speak in english. He let go of me, apparently knowing what I said. I ran out of the house, tears streaming down my cheeks. I stopped time and ran.. Ran as far away from my only home as I could. I ran to that old abandoned house that Itachi brought me to. I ran inside and found him sitting on the bed. "Ahhh.. So my kitty cat has returned.." He chuckled to himself.
"Huh? I thought you were dead!" I half shouted, half cried, my voice cracking in mid sentance. He shook his head no as I looked for a way to escape. No way out. He walked over to me and gripped my wrist tightly. "You aren't getting away this time." He said to me. I didn't struggle to get free this time, knowing that there was no home for me to go to. I glanced in another direction. "Aww.. So you're staying this time?" He joked. I glanced in his direction and nodded slowly. He smirked as he threw me towards the other end of the room. I landed with a thud against the wall, and slid to the ground against my back, not trying to get away. Itachi strolled over to me and started to stroke my cheek gently with his thumb. He leaned in and kissed me. 'This isn't right...' I thought to myself. I pushed Itachi away and tried to run for it. He grabbed my wrist and dragged me down to the ground, smiling evily. "Lemme go!" I shouted as I did a Kage Bushin no Jutsu. I copied myself at least twenty times and Itachi let go of me as the clones tackled him. I made a run for it towards Training Area NO. 44, better known as the forest of death, but I didn't realize that I ran in there. 'Hmm.. Where am I? Let's see... Trees.. Trees.. A leech.. Booth... More trees... Yup.. Looks like the forest of death.' I thought to myself. I pulled out a kunai and gripped it tightly in my hands, just in case someone showed up. I started to wander throughout the forest, looking for the tower in the center of it. I heard a rustling in the bushes, a squirrel maby? I spun around and someone threw a kunai from the trees, aiming for me. I stepped to the side and let it hit the ground. I looked around frantically and heard people appear behind me. "My my my... What's a pretty little girl like you doing here?" One of them asked. He had dark brown shoulder length hair and a bandage on his nose. He had a dark blue jacket on and under that was that fish net stuff. He wore navy blue camo pants. On his right was a girl who was pretty and skinny. She wore a black dress with a fish net center, showing her stomach. She had bleached blonde hair that was pulled back in a pony tail and she was carrying a kunai. The other one was a boy who had snow white hair and blazing red eyes. He wore a black and white type of outfit. "Hey Kouhichi.. Do you think that we should just kill her or make her suffer?" The girl asked the brunette boy.
"Suffer." He said with an evil grin. "Suffer it is." She said. Her lips parted in a wide grin as she attacked me. I spin, dodging her punch. She grabs my hair and ripped me around to the side, making me smash into a tree. I tumble to the ground as she grins again, motioning me to come after her. I growled, grabbing my kunai and attempted to throw it into her stomach, but that failed. She turned to the side, letting it fall, skidding on the dirt. I pick myself up and charg at her. She took out a kunai and started to slash it towards my face, and I spun around, meekly slicing her face with a senbon. She gapes stupidly, placing her hand on her face, feeling blood trickle through her fingers. "You ruined my face!" She screamed, running at me. I tried to land a side kick, but her hand stopped me. She grabbed my leg, spinning me around until I hit a tree. I didn't get up fast enough and she took this time to land a punch in my face. I stumbled back, clutching my bloodied nose in my hand. She took that chance to punch me in my gut. I kneel over, my stomach and neck dying in pure pain. I clutched my stomach and stood up. She came over to me, grabbed my hair, bent me over and jabbed me in my face with her knee. I fell back, crying in pain. She took her fist and slammed it into my stomach. I winced in pain as I felt a hand grip my hair, lifting me up. "Ahhhhhhh!' I cried as one Kouhichi threw my limp body to the ground, then kicked my face back. My body skidded back and I felt a kunai slice my neck. Blood starts seeping out with a rapid flow. I tried to stop it with my fingers, but it trickles through, covering my hand in arm. Hot red milk is trickling down my entire body, and I gazed up at the three of them. The men lauch as the girl kicked me in my back.. I groaned in pain, trying to stand up but the white haired ninja took me by the neck and held me above the ground. He smirked and tossed me to the side, like a broken toy that a toddler had found. I was bleeding, crying, my face is bruised and my hair is matted. The three ninjas smirk as they walked over to me, kicking me over and over. "Never touch me again, weakling!" The white haired boy shouted. "I hate you!" Kouichi yelled.
"Ara kawaii! (You're ugly!)" The girl kicked me in the back as teh other two at the exact same time slammed their feet in my stomach, nearly making me throw up. "Heh... That should teach you to go wandering through the forest.. Come on guys.. Let's leave her to die." The girl said, walking away. There I laid, in a puddle of my own blood. My eyes dimmed as I fell back into a state of unconciousness.
~The Next Day..~
I opened my heavy eyelids and found myself laying in a pool of dry, sticky blood. My clothes stuck to my slim figure. I tried to sit up but my arms didn't respond to my command. I heard footsteps nearby. 'Uh oh.. What if it's those ninja who were pounding me yesterday?' I thought to myself. I slowed my breathing and closed my eyes, pretending to be dead. "Huh?" The person said. It sounded like a boy. "No!! Hisakata!" He yelled as I heard him run over to me. I felt him lift me up under my arms and legs and hold me close to his body. "Why?" He cried. I opened my eye just a little, enough for me to be able to see and for him not to see that I was alive. 'Sasuke? Ahh.. So this is where he goes on Tuesdays.....' I thought. I felt Sasuke's tears drop onto my face. I opened my eyes slightly, enough that he'd notice. "Sasuke.. It's kinda hard to breathe if you're holding my head into your chest..." I coughed. He looked down at me, amazed that I was alive. "Hisakata! You're alive!" He shouted as he pulled me into a hug. "Ouch!! That hurts!" I said to him as he let go of me. "Don't worry.. I'll be fine!" I said to him. He lifted me up bridal style, not caring what I had just said. "Here here... Just set me down! I can walk! Really!" I assured him. He set me down and not even a second later I fell to the ground like a ragdoll. "Okay.. Never mind." I changed my mind as he pulled my arm over his shoulder and we walked out of the forest of death together.
~Later~
"Whoo hoo!! I'm feeling waay better!" I cheered as I walked out of the leaf hospital with Sasuke behind me. I had bandages all over my body. "Remember what Tsunade said.. 'Don't overdue it.'" He reminded me.
"Yea yea.. I know what Tsunade said to me..." I waved my hand in his direction. We walked home without a word. By the time we reached the house, I finally remembered something. "Hey Sasuke..."
"Hmm?"
"Where's Chihiro?"
"Oh.. That spook of her boyfriend took her back to Suna.. Saying that she shouldn't have left..."
"Ohh. That makes sense..." I replied. Just as soon as we stepped in the door, Chihiro jumped on me from behind. "Oniichan!! You're back!" She shouted in my ear, toppling me over. "WHAT!! CHIHIRO!?! I THOUGHT THAT GAARA BROUGHT YOU BACK TO SUNA WITH HIM!!" I shouted at her, realizing what happened.
"Nope!! He let me stay because I told him that a thousand years of darkness was approaching fast and I had to tell you! He's going to pick me up in the morning!" She cheerfully shouted at me.
"Really? One thousand years of darkness?"
"No.. Actually, 962, but one thousand sounds more convincing!" She cheered as she stood up and helped me up as well.
"But.. Where will you stay?" Sasuke asked suddenly.
"Here!" She shouted in reply.
"Yea.. I guess that I'll just sleep with Sasuke..." I gave in. Sasuke blushed madly and Chihiro cheered like an idiot. "Ohh.. Don't let me catch you doing anything inapropiate Sasuke! That includes you too Hisakata." Chihiro wagged a finger at us, pretending to be mature. I rolled my eyes and Chihiro noticed my indoor flower garden. "Aww.. Flowers!! OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!! FOUR!!" She shouted as she pulled out a golf club and shot off their heads. I had a horrified expression on my face as she continued to chop the flowers. Sasuke stood behind me and gripped my shoulders to keep me from running over and murdering my sister. She stopped when she had hit the roots and ran up the stairs, dropping the golf club. "I'll see what she's up to." Sasuke said as he let go of me and I ran over to the flowers. I heard him go up the stairs and I grabbed the remains of my poor flowers. I heard Sasuke shouting something upstairs, and Chihiro shouting back.
Sasuke's P.O.V.
"I'll see what she's up to." I said as I let go of Hisakata's shoulders and she ran over to the flowers. I ran up the stairs after Chihiro. I saw Chihiro run into my room and looks around. She took a seat on my bed. I walked over to Chihiro and took a seat next to her. "Hiya Sasuke!" She greeted me cheerfully.
"Uhh.. Hey." I said cooly. We had a conversation for a few minutes, that is, until she stood up and started to jump on my bed like a maniac. I stood up and jumped onto the bed, chasing Chihiro in a circle, trying to make her stop jumping. I couldn't catch her, so I decided to stop chasing and decided to have some fun. She started to run in a zig zag and I followed. She stopped and I nearly slammed into her. She spun around and grabbed my wrists and started to jump really high, lifting me up in the air with her. When we finally got down, I jumped off and took my shirt off, I was sweating alot. Chihiro stopped and started to watch me. "Sasuke.. Put your shirt back on..." She stuttered, I didn't listen to her. I jumped back on the bed and chased her around again. I jumped on Chihiro and she landed face first into the matress. "Okay.. That was not cool." She muffled. She pushed me off of her and stood up. Seconds later, she shouted at the top of her lungs, "REVENGE!!" and charged straight at me. She tackled me and knocked me down onto the bed on my back. I was too tired to get up, and so was she. About a minute passed and Chihiro spoke up. "Uh.. Sasuke? I can't breathe.. And.. You're sweaty.." Chihiro choked out.
Hisakata's P.O.V.
"Oh hey Gaara!" I greeted him as he arrived in a swirl of sand. "Why are you here?" I asked.
"Here to get Chihiro.. Kazekage wants her to see him..." He said dryly.
"Oh. Well, she's upstairs with Sasuke right now..." I said to him. I guided him upstairs and we heard the conversation upstairs. "Sasuke.. Put your shirt back on..." We could hear Chihiro say.
"What do you think's going on in there?" I asked Gaara, who only shrugged. I heard the matress sink in. "Okay... That was not cool." Chihiro's voice was muffled.
"Ooh... Sounds interesting..." Gaara said. I glared at him and pressed my ear against the door even harder. "REVENGE!" I heard Chihiro yell and the bed sank in again. I heard panting in there, and no other noise for a moment. "Uhhh.. Sasuke? I can't breathe.. And.. You're sweaty." I heard Chihiro choke out.
"Uhm... Hisakata.. Do you think we should go in there?" Gaara asked me cautously. I busted the door open with my foot, which wasn't necessary because the door was unlocked. "OKAY PEOPLE!! WHATEVER YOU'RE DOING IN HERE, YOU CAN STOP!!" I shouted, covering my eyes with my hand. I could hear the bed shift and someone stand up. Someone yanked my hand away from my eyes and I stared into Sasuke's face. "Sasuke!" I yelled as I hugged him, seeing as he wasn't doing anything but messing with my sister. "Huh?" He asked. I didn't reply. I just hugged him. "Gaara!" Chihiro shouted and ran over to Gaara, who just stood there and took it like a man. I laughed quietly to myself as I let go of Sasuke to look at Chihiro and Gaara. "Bye." Gaara said to us as he dissapeared in a swirl of sand. "Hey wait.. GAARA!! You forgot about me!" Chihiro shouted to the air. Sasuke bit back his laughter. "Then.. I guess you're staying here for the night." I said to Chihiro, realizing that it was about five. "Hmm.. What should we do for the rest of the day?" I thought aloud.
~Once more.. Later that Day...~
"Wow! I can't believe it's that late!" I said, seeing as it was ten thirty already. "Whoo! I'm gonna go to sleep..." I shouted sleepily.
"Yea.. Let's go to bed..." Chihiro agreed, not her usual self. Sasuke nodded. "Oh.. And Sasuke... If you try anything on oniichan, then I'm going to hurt you." Chihiro said, pounding her fist into her other hand. "And you're sleeping with a shirt on, Sasuke..." Chihiro added, smiling this time. Sasuke blushed, looking embarrased, and I sighed in dissapointment. I climbed into Sasuke's bed with him following. "Where's a camera?" Chihiro asked. I sighed and pointed towards the closet. She ran over and started to dig around. "Ewww!! Uchiha-undies!!" She shouted as she tossed some of Sasuke's boxers out, hitting him in the face. I had to clamp my hands over my face to keep myself from busting out in laughter. He peeled it off of his face and threw it back at Chihiro, who was crawling out with a camera. "Say cheese!" She shouted as she took a picture of Sasuke and me lying in bed together. "Chihiro!" I screamed. "Night!" She shouted as she dropped the camera and jumped in my bed. She fell asleep in two seconds. Sasuke and I looked at eachother, then laid down. I was thinking about what would happen in the days to come. A cold draft wandered into the room, penetrating the sheets. I shivered a little, turning my body so that I was facing Sasuke. "I'm cold..." I shivered. A few seconds later, I felt the bed lower more as Sasuke moved towards me, wrapping his arms around me. I snuggled against his chest, breathing deeply. I could feel his warmth and soon I stopped shivering.
~Dream~
"Hisakata.. Come here.. There's a man from the Uchiha clan to see your Mama and Papa." It was her maid. She beckoned the unhappy little girl to her, ruffling her long light blue hair off to the side. "Can you stop!! I just got my hair the way that I wanted it!" She said, walking infront of her happy maid. "Hmm? What's wrong with you?" She asked the girl. She turned to face the maid, black tears streaming down her face. "I'm... I'm a murderer!" She cried, burrying her face in her hands, the black ink leaking throught. Seeping through her light pink kimono. Her maid rushed over to her, wiping away the ink with her hankerchief. "Please child.. Don't cry." A dark voice emerged from her throat, totally not her normal voice. "Who... What are you?" The girl yelled, yanking her arm away from it. Her maid sighed, walking out onto the hedge covered in light blue roses looking down on the girl as she ran. She stopped as a person appeared before her, about the age of 13. "I'll see you soon?" She cried, not wanting to sound happy or pleased.
"Soon enough, my love... Soon enough..." He smiled, riding away on a white horse. The little girl tried to remember him, to always know who she should avoid. His dark eyes, the lines under them, his dark hair, the look of a killer.. She promised to remember everything about him.
~End Dream~
I woke up in bed, sweat pouring out of my skin and down my face. Sasuke was latched onto my body. I sighed deeply, seeing as it was still dark from the light escaping in through the windows. I drifted into a light sleep with no dreams to come.
I opened my wary eyes to find Chihiro watching over me. "Huh? Chihiro?" I asked, rubbing my eyes. Chihiro started to snicker. I sat up and looked over at Sasuke, who was decked out with purple sharpie marker. He had a circle around his left eye, a mustauche, and a unibrow. Chihiro lifted up his shirt to reveal MY name and hers signed on his stomach. "Chihiro! Get that off!" I hissed to her as she dropped his shirt. Sasuke groaned in his sleep and sat up. "Oh hey Sasuke!" I said nervously, slapping on a smile. He looked at me funny, seeing as I was chuckling akwardly. He stood up out of bed and I followed, straightning out my hair with my hands. He passed the mirror and didn't notice himself in it. But then he backed up, causing me to trip over my own feet. "WHAT THE HECK?!?!?" He shouted, looking into the mirror. Thankfully, he didn't lift up his shirt to reveal my name and Chihiro's name written on his stomach. "Hey Sasuke! Look at your stomach!" Chihiro shouted, as if she read my mind. He lifted up his shirt and read what it said. He turned slowly to me, who was still on the floor. "Uhhh.. Sasuke.. I didn't do any of that..." I stammered, afraid of what he might do to me.
"Uh uh... Don't lie.. I saw you do that to him in his sleep!!" Chihiro shouted, waving her finger, obviously pretending to be mature. Sasuke cracked his knuckles, his eyes glowing with the Sharingan. When he was done, I was suspended from the ceiling by rope, my arms and legs were bound together, and I had a black eye. "Help?" I begged. Chihiro snickered and Sasuke crossed his arms across his chest. Sasuke was no longer decked out with the marker. He went to the bathroom and washed it all off while Chihiro suspended me to the ceiling. "Oh.. Sasuke.. I have a confession. I was the one who decked you out with the purple sharpie marker." Chihiro said suddenly. Sasuke looked shocked, anime tears were streaming down my face. Sasuke ran over to me, cutting the rope that suspended me to the ceiling. "Sorry." He muttered in my ear. When the rope was cut, he caught me before I came crashing down to the ground on my chest and stomach. He broke the bounds with a kunai and he set me down. "Thanks!" I said, bowing. Both me and Sasuke turned slowly to face Chihiro. I was holding a flashlight under my chin, making myself look eviler. "Uhh... Guys?" She stuttered, backing away. I pulled out a kunai, and Sasuke did too. As we got closer to Chihiro, a swirl of sand appeared next to her, and Gaara appeared. "Don't touch her unless you want to die." He said dryly yet calmly. I nodded, stepping behind Sasuke, using him as a shield. He dissapeared with Chihiro in hand. "Whoo.. Thank you heaven!!" I said as I got down on my knees and looked up to the ceiling. Sasuke shook his head and walked away. "Hey wait!" I shouted as I stood up and ran after him. My foot got locked onto my heel while I was running, which caused me to come tumbling down the stairs. "Ahhhhh!!!" I screamed as I was about to go crashing down the stairs. "You're hopeless..." Sasuke said, catching me by the scuff of my shirt. He was hanging from the ceiling by a string of chakra. "Eh he he..." I laughed quietly. Chihiro appeared with Gaara, in a swirl of sand. "Hey Sasuke! Hisakata! I forgot to ask you these questions!" She shouted from the bottom of the stairs.
"Shoot." Sasuke said, jumping down from the ceiling.
"Okay.. Are you dull and boring?" She asked, taking out a clipboard and pink, sparkly glasses.
"No..." Sasuke and I replied at the same time.
"Okay..." She said, checking off something on the list. "Then.. Do you have a life?"
"Well duh!" I said.
"Yes." Sasuke answered.
"Uh huh... Okay.. Last question... Are you.. Un... Uncon.. Unconseye-" She struggled on the word.
"Unconcious." Gaara corrected. Chihiro hit him on the head with the clipboard. "NO ONE ASKED YOU! Right.. Back to the question... Dead from the neck up?" She asked.
"What?" I shouted.
"Of course not..." Sasuke replied, apparently knowing what she ment. She jotted the things down on her clipboard. She took the glasses off and told us what we scored. "Okay.. Hisakata's alright.. But... Sasuke.. I'm sad to say that.. You need to rent a clown." She said, tears forming in her eyes as she placed her hand over her heart. The room filled with smoke and Neji appeared, dressed up as a clown. "What? NEJI!! You weren't supposed to be here! What happened to Shikamaru?" Chihiro shouted.
"Shikamaru couldn't make it.. He told me to show up when you called for him.. I see why he wanted to get sick so badly... Sorry." He said, shrugging.
"Oh.. I get it!!! So you want to have Shikamaru's job... Okay! Shika's fired and you're hired!" She said stupidly. Five minutes of silence went by with Neji and Chihiro staring at each other. Neji was emotionless as always, and Chihiro looked dumbstuck. "Ohhh!! I get it now!! Hahaha!!" She said, realizing what happened. Neji walked over to me. "Hello Hisakata... My name is Neji Hyuga.. I'm pretty sure you know me... Are you with anyone?" He asked me, with still no emotion on my face. In the backround, Gaara pulled a puppy out of nowhere and Chihiro ran over and grabbed it, going crazy. 'He's pretty cute... Smart and quiet... But I can't do that to Sasuke...' I think. "Sorry, but I'm with-" I felt Sasuke's arm wrap around my waist, pulling me closer towards his body. "Yes.. She's with me." Sasuke said, smiling his oh-so-hot smile. Neji nods, and walks over to Chihiro, who's smothering the puppy. "Hey Chihiro.. Wanna go out with me?" He asked, smiling cutely. Chihiro stopped smothering the puppy and looked at Neji, a look of pure terror. "Are you hitting on me?" She asked, dropping the puppy, who crawled away. "Gaara!! He's hitting on me!! Sick 'em boy!! Sorry Neji.. But, I'm with the sand man here!" Chihiro said, patting Gaara's back. Gaara uncorked his gourd when Ten Ten ran in. "Neji!! What did I tell you! You are to take a bath and we're going for a walk!" She commanded. Neji looked scared out of his wit. "Oh.. AND WERE YOU HITTING ON HISAKATA AND HER SISTER AGAIN? WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU! I'M YOUR GIRLFRIEND! YOU CAN'T HAVE MORE THAN ONE UNLESS YOU WANT TO BE PUMMBLED INTO A STATE OF UNCONSIOUSNESS!!"
"Yes ma'am..." He mumbled as Ten Ten walked over and grabbed Neji's ear, pulling him out the door after apologizing. "Hmm... Gaara! Let's go upstairs!" Chihiro shouted after giving something some thought. I watched her pull him by the sash on his belt up the stairs. "Heh.. I wonder what they're doing..." Sasuke said.
"I know.. Let's just say that it isn't pretty..." The dog that Chihiro was playing with said. I turned my head slowly, facing the dog. "You talk?" I asked. It nodded. "Then.. What are they doing?" Sasuke asked.
"Chihiro dragged him into the bathroom and is messing with your Foam Blaster..." He said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world. I sighed as Sasuke started to jump around. "Hang on.." He said, walking up the stairs. He walked to the bathroom, the only one in our house.
Sasuke's P.O.V.
"Hang on.." I said, walking up the stairs. I walked to the bathroom, the only one in our house. On the door it said something in japanese. I knocked twice. Chihiro appeared in a purple cleaning/maid outfit. Her hands had dark purple rubber gloves on them. Her eyes were brown right now and her hair was a dark purple and pulled back into a braid which was slung over her shoulder. "How did you do that?" I asked her in astonishment. She didn't answer. "Uhh.. Can I go to the bathroom?" I asked.
"Didn't you see the sign? It's closed. For cleaning."
"But I'll only be a moment!"
"It's closed for cleaning."
"But-"
"Did you know? In many ways, the flow of electrical waves through our bodies can be compared to the flow of water. Over 60% of the human body is made up of water. In other words, if you were to round up, people are water. Many people fail to realize this, considering the bodies solid appearance, but nonetheless, on the inside, we are essentially a liquid. Water is continually flowing through us. It streams through our veins. It sustains all parts of our bodies; the head, the heart, the stomach, the kidneys, the bladder... Nevertheless, I believe that people do not take water serously enough. The first place that people are mistaken is that among clothing, food, and shelter, water is only associated with food, which origionates from a nonchalant(sp?) way of thinking." She said in an eerie tone of voice. My eye twitched a little. "Sasuke? Did you get in?" Hisakata called from the bottom of the stairs. I didn't reply. "Oh.. I was kidding.. You can go!" Chihiro finally said, leaning against the doorway. Gaara stood up from inside bathroom and walked up behind her. His hair was shiny and was formed into a single point in the middle of his head. "Don't say anything unless you want to die." He said to me, as I was about to comment. I nodded and he stepped out, Chihiro did too, letting me go to the bathroom.
Hisakata's P.O.V.
"Sasuke? Did you get in?" I called from the bottom of the stairs. He didn't answer. I sighed, knowing what Chihiro was doing. A few seconds passed and Chihiro came trotting down the stairs with Gaara close behind. Chihiro was wearing her weird outfit that she usually wears whenever she's doing her water speech. Gaara's hair was shiny, gathered into the center of his head, and pointed like a lightning rod. I bit back my laughter, but he meerly glared at me. Chihiro's face lit up with an idea. "Gaara! Here! Put this on, and change into a tuxido when Sasuke's done in the bathroom!" She said, pulling out a pair of thick rimmed glasses. He glared at her. "Why don't I just kill you here and now..." He said to her.
"You can't because you don't want to lose another loved one, now do you?" She replied, happy as ever. He sighed and snatched the glasses and trotted up the stairs. Chihiro pulled out an action figure and started to play with it. It had bright orange hair, which was gathered to the center of it's head and pointed like a lightning rod. It had a bright red cape and wore a tuxido. The figure had huge, thick rimmed glasses, like the pair that she pulled out. "Tuxido... POWER!!" She cheered, playing with the figure. Her eyes were round and chibi like. Sasuke came down the stairs, and just as he was about to bust out in laughter, I slapped my hand over his mouth, muffling it out so that Chihiro wouldn't hear. She made strange noises as she made her toy fly. "Yaahh!! Tuxido Man!" She cheered, throwing the toy up in the air. When gravity took effect, it came flying down to the floor, hitting Chihiro in the head in the process. "Ow!" She cried, rubbing the spot where it hit her. I nearly busted out in laughter, thankfully, Sasuke slapped his own hand over my mouth. Gaara came down the stairs, in a tuxido and the glasses. "Yaay!! Tuxido Man!" Chihiro shouted, throwing her hands up in the air. Gaara rolled his eyes. Chihiro's face lit up again. "Oohh.. You're supposed to have a cape!" She shouted. She ran over to her doll and pulled its cape off of it. She then ran over to Gaara, and she took his hand. Chihiro tied the cape around his index finger, causing both me and Sasuke to burst out in laughter. Chihiro slowly turned to me and Sasuke. She ran up in a split second and punched Sasuke in his face really hard, knocking the living daylights out of him, also sending him flying into the wall. "OHMYGOD! CHIHIRO!! WHAT DID YOU DO?" I shouted, running over to Sasuke, who had a bloody nose. Chihiro just hid behind Gaara. "I didn't do that! It was the candy!! Gaara shoved it in my mouth!!" She shouted.
"No.. That was you..."
"GAARA! Don't lie to my sister! You know you did it!! Not me! See! He shoved a twizzler down my throat!!" She shouted once more! Gaara grabbed her wrist and pulled her up the stairs. I grabbed Sasuke's arm and threw it over my shoulder. I walked him up the stairs and into our room. Gaara and Chihiro were surrounded by a sand bubble, I figured that they were kissing. I sighed and laid Sasuke down on the bed. I sat for a moment or two on Sasuke's bed before standing up and leaving the room. I walked down to the kitchen and found Itachi sitting in the kitchen, twiddling his thumbs. "Hey there, my kitty cat..." He said, smirking. I tried to back away, but an Itachi clone appeared and grabbed me from behind. The real Itachi stood up and walked over to me and kissed me on the lips. I heard Chihiro walk down the stairs and gasp. "Hello- wait.. ITACHI'S HERE! I'M GONE!!" She shouted stupidly and turned to go up the stairs. Itachi pulled away and said, "Hold it." Chihiro froze in her place. I closed my eyes and sighed, and when I opened them, Itachi wasn't infront of me. He appeared behind Chihiro, who had a startled look on her face "Hmph... Looks like you aren't as hyper as you were the last time we met..." He said quietly, Chihiro freaked out.
"WHAT? YOU'VE MET HIM BEFORE AND HE DIDN'T KILLED YOU?" I shouted, the Itachi clone's grip growing tighter. "Oww!! Hey! Lay off!" I shouted to it, kicking him in the leg. Chihiro poked Itachi's cloak. "I see that what I did to you didn't wear off yet..." She said, sounding more intelligent than before. He frowned. "Those are clouds, you twit! CLOUDS!!" He yelled, slapping her across her cheek.
"Wait.. She did something to you?" I asked.
"Well, yes, but no, but yes too... WOULD YOU GIVE IT A REST?" He shouted at me.
"Geez... I just wanted to know." I said quietly. Chihiro jumped on Itachi's back. "Aww!! You know you liked it!" She shouted.
"I don't have time for this." Itachi said, dissapearing with Chihiro on his back and me in the hands of his clone.
We appeared in that grubby room that he had brought me in. I was thrown to the ground again and Chihiro was bound and gagged. "Heh... Time's up, my kitty cat." He said to me. Chihiro's voice was muffled by the cloth that gagged her. She was probably chattering on and on about flowers, or how great cheese is. Itachi called for Kisame, to keep Chihiro occupied. "Hmmm... What should we do when we're married?" He asked me. I stood up and brushed myself off. Chihiro's face turned to an expression of shock when she heard that. She started chattering again. Kisame came in and took Chihiro away, I don't know what will happen to her.
Chihiro's P.O.V.
We appeared in a grubby room with no lights. Hisakata was thrown to the ground. I was bound and gagged. "Heh... Time's up, my kitty cat." Itachi said to Hisakata. "Kitty cat? Itachi.. Really.. Why do you call her your kitty cat.. I mean, you're so superfical..." My voice was muffled by the cloth that gagged me. Itachi called for something, I don't know what. "Hmmm... What should we do when we're married?" He asked Hisakata, who stood up and brushed herself off. My face turned to an expression of shock. "Married? You and him? Did mama and papa do this?" I muffled. Kisame came in and took me somewhere. He set me down in a different room and un-gagged me, along with breaking the ropes. "OH NO!! IT'S JAWS!! DON'T EAT ME!!!" I shouted at him. He chuckled. "GAARA!!" I cried as Kisame got closer and pulled out a kunai. Gaara appeared in a swirl of sand. "Don't touch her unless you wish to die..." He threatened. Kisame backed away, his beady eyes studying Gaara. I ran over to Gaara and jumped on his back. "Don't make me kill you too." He said to me.
"Oh hush.. You know you love it." I said, kissing his cheek and playfully poking his nose. His face turned so red that I couldn't see the love symbol on his forehead anymore. I patted his back as I jumped off. "Here.. You take care of Jaws for me.. I gotta go do something..." I said as I did a seried of handsigns and dissapeared, leaving Gaara with Kisame. I reappeared in Hisakata's room. I went through her closet and put on a set of her clothes. I then transformed into her. I ran down the stairs and stopped half way down.
Hisakata's P.O.V.
As soon as Itachi made sure that Kisame took Chihiro away, he walked over to me. He placed his hand below my chin, tilted my head up, and pulled me into another kiss. I pushed him away and spit out my saliva in disgust. I did a few handsigns and dissapeared in a puff of smoke. I reappeared in my room. Sasuke was no longer on the bed. I ran down the stairs and stopped in horror. I saw blood everywhere. Sasuke was clutching what looked to be me... I ran down the remaining stairs and ran to Sasuke.
Chihiro's P.O.V.
"Itachi?" I shouted in confusement as I saw Sasuke once again pressed against the wall by Itachi. This time, Itachi's hand was around Sasuke's throat. "Sasuke!" I cried as I saw the pain that Sasuke was going through. "Hisakata... Run!" Sasuke commanded me. I didn't listen. I charged straight on at Itachi and knocked him over. His head hit the cabinet. I kicked him once and ran back to Sasuke, who slid to the ground. "Sasuke! Are you okay?" I asked him concerningly as I got down on my knees. "Just dandy..." He joked. I rolled my eyes. I could hear Itachi get up and walk towards us. I turned and looked up in pure terror. "Be a good kitty and get lost..." Itachi said to me as he shoved me so hard that he knocked me over and I hit the wall. Sasuke stood up and tried to run over to me. Itachi's hand glowed with a blue chakra and Itachi was going to kill Sasuke. I saw that coming. Sasuke spun around and Itachi was going to attack Sasuke with that blue chakra, aiming for his heart. I stood up as fast as I could and ran in front of Sasuke, taking the attack upon myself. "Heh.. Looks like you won't get your bride after all, Itachi." I said as I spit up blood. "Hisakata!" Sasuke and Itachi yelled at the same time. I turned back to see Sasuke. "To protect the one you care about most, do not choose death. Choose to live your life out and protect your precious person, no matter what the cost was..." I said. I smiled as my eyes turned grey and my spirit faded away.
Sasuke's P.O.V.
I spun around and Itachi was going to attack me with the blue chakra in his hands, aiming for my heart. I braced myself for the impact but Hisakata jumped in front of me, taking the attack upon herself. "Heh.... Looks like you won't have your bride after all, Itachi." She said as she spit up blood. "Hisakata!" I shouted and my brother did too at the same moment. She turned her head around to see me. "To protect the one you care about most, do not choose death. Choose to live your life out and protect your precious person, no matter what the cost was..." She smiled as her eyes turned a greyish color. "I won't." I cried as her body fell to the ground with a hard thud. "Heh.. Foolish little girl." Itachi said as he kicked her body, causing it to roll a good five feet.
"Hey. I thought that you loved her." I shouted at Itachi.
"Heh.. I didn't really... I was going to marry her, but if she killed herself in the process, then that's her own fault, not mine." He chuckled evily. Smoke filled the room as he dissapeared. When the smoke cleared, I ran over to Hisakata. I bent down and checked her pulse. Nothing. I clutched her body and started to cry. I heard footsteps running downt he stairs, and saw Hisakata, untouched by anything but what had happened earlier during the week. "Eh... Sasuke? What happened?" Hisakata asked me, stopping in horror from what she saw. She ran over to me and kneeled down. I felt the Hisakata in my arms turn into something else. Her figure grew smaller and her hair was longer. Her skin was alot tanner than normal, and eventually she changed into Chihiro's clothes. "Chihiro..." Hisakata sobbed. "She gave her life for me..." She cried even more. I held Hisakata close to me.
~Years Later~
I was standing by my sister's grave, Sasuke was there with me. My hair was waist length and wavy. "May you have a good afterlife..." I said quietly, setting down a freshly picked flower by her grave. I bit back my tears, remembering what she did for me. Sasuke saw this and walked to my side, pulling me into a tight embrace. "Don't worry.. She'll be reincarnated..." He teased me. I stepped back and told him to close his eyes. He did what I told him. A second later, I punched him really hard in his face, causing him to be thrown back. "That's what you get for tying me up and giving me a black eye six years ago..." I shouted. He quickly got to his feet. "Fiesty..." He joked. I readied myself to punch him again, but this time, he walked over to me and pulled me into a kiss. Chihiro appeared in a ghostly figure. "What? Chihiro?" I said, pulling away from the kiss. She nodded. "Heh.. I've been meaning to come back in a while..." She said.
"To do what?"
"This!" She shouted, walking over and punching Sasuke really hard in his gut.
"YOU'RE NOT SOLID!! HOW DO YOU DO THAT?" I shouted, pointing in fear.
"Oh.. I got special permission from the spirit world to do that..." She said, cracking her knuckles.
"WHAT? THEY LET YOU PUNCH ME!?" Sasuke shouted, standing up.
"Yup! They say that you're a jerk.. But... You're much more in my eyes..." She said evily.

----------------------------------------

In the making of Memory of the Stars....
Ehhh... I ran out of ideas half way through the story, so I relied on my oniichan, Kyoko, for some help.. Well... First off.. My original idea was to have Hisakata die herself... Then, considering I may enter this for a contest, I changed it so that it was a replacement jutsu... HAPPY ENDING!! Right... Then, Kyoko-sama told me that that idea was cruddy, so she asked me to have it so that Chihiro dies.... Yeah... So.. That's the current ending... For everyone reading this, I'm tagging in a special little deleted scene section. So uhh... Anyways.. Here's the deleted scenes....
Special Deleted Scene One!!
Both of the writer's P.O.V.
We was sitting at home writing Memory of the Stars on my computer, along with watching the actors play it out on a live broadcast "Look up!" Naruto shouted in reply. Hisakata looked up to find Naruto suspended in a tree by his ankle, which was tied to a rope. "You just never learn, do you..." Sasuke said to him as he jumped up and cut the rope with a kunai and jumped down. Hisakata stepped forward to catch Naruto, but he came crashing down to the ground. "CUT!" The director yelled. She looked to the director. "WHAT NOW?" She shouted angerly.
"You didn't catch Naruto! You're supposed to!"
"Oh.. I was?" Hisakata shouted to him. He nodded. "Sorry!!!"
"Okay.. We'll continue..."
"Look up!" Naruto shouted in reply. Hisakata looked up to find Naruto suspended in a tree by his ankle, which was tied to a rope. "You just never learn, do you..." Sasuke said to him as he jumped up and cut the rope with a kunai and jumped down. She stepped forward to catch Naruto, but a trap was there too! A rope coiled around her ankle and pulled her up towards the branch that Naruto was hanging on moments earlier. "Get me down!!" Hisakata yelled to the two of them while clutching her skirt to keep it from falling. The rope broke and she came crashing down to the ground on her head. "Oww!! That isn't supposed to happen!" she shouted, Sasuke ran over to her and helped her up. "Ugg.. You're such a loser..." He said to her.
"Hey!! The writer is still writing here!!" Hisakata shouted at Sasuke and punched him really hard in the face.
"Uhm... Sasuke... Hisakata's right..." Kyoko-sama, the other writer said, interrupting the story.
"Yea.. She's right..." I backed her up. Sasuke glared at us, and I sheepisly smiled, blushing mildly. "She does have a point... Hmph.. Why do I play the role of a weak character?" Hisakata asked herself.
"Hisakata!! You aren't supposed to do that!" The director yelled at her. She shrugged. "SO WHAT!! IT WAS YOUR STUPID ROPE THAT STARTED IT FIRST!!" She shouted at the director.
"Yea but..."
"DON'T MAKE ME SUMMON KOKORO!!" Hisakata threatened him. Chihiro appeared in a tree and jumped down. "Hey buddy..." She said to Sasuke as Hisakata was in the backround bickering with the director. "Huh?" He said.
"No one says that to oniichan." She shouted, punching him really hard in his gut, sending him flying. She glanced over towards the camera. "Hey!! Turn that darn thing off!!" She shouted. The camera man shook his head no. "I SAID TURN IT OFF!!" She shouted and ran over to the camera and punched it so hard that the glass shattered. The screen turned blue then started to get fuzzy. "Please stand by due to technical difficulties..." The screen said. There was a picture of a camera man and he was looking through the camera and he was on fire. "WHAT? THIS ISN'T SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!!" I shouted, kicking the T.V. twice.
Special Deleted Scene Two!!
Chihiro pulled out four waterguns. "Here.. This one is for you, Hisakata..." She said, handing me the sky blue one. She handed the navy blue one to Sasuke, and the red one to Gaara. She kept the pink one to herself. "Okay... Now, everyone spread out... Who ever is the wettest loses..." Chihiro announced. Me and Sasuke stuck together. Chihiro and Gaara stuck together too. I walked over to the farside of the yard with Sasuke, and Chihiro did the opposite. She walked behind a tree, waited a moment or two before she came flying out. "Die Sasuke!!" She shouted, squirting him with the water gun, sending him flying off of his feet and into the next three yards. "What? WHY'D YOU DO THAT?" I shouted, seeing that the water gun she had was high pressured. "Hey.. I said that whoever was the wettest lost, so then Sasuke loses!! We win!" She shouted. Gaara took his water gun and shot it up in the air, only to find a rod with a flag on it that says, "Bang!" He looked at it. "Chihiro.. Where's the water...?" He asked.
"Oh.. The store ran out of the ones filled with water.. So I got you that one, so you wouldn't hurt anyone!!" She shouted. He rolled his eyes. I ran over to Sasuke.
Special Deleted Scene Three!!
"I have an idea!" Chihiro announced to both me and Sasuke. All of us were sitting on Sasuke's bed in our room. I questionangly looked at her. Sasuke did too. It was about midnight, or atleast, it looked and felt like it. "Whoever falls asleep first loses!!" She said. I nodded in agreement and smiled. "Go!" She said, signaling that it was the start of the contest. Sasuke drifted into sleep within the next two seconds. "Wow! That was fast!" I said, poking Sasuke.
"Do you think that he's asleep?" She asked me. I shrugged, still poking Sasuke. "Hmmm.. Sasuke is an cocky, arrogant pig with low self esteem.. Even Naruto is better than him!" Chihiro said, checking to see if Sasuke really was asleep. No response. "Yaaayy!" She shouted, then slapped her hand over her mouth.
"Sasuke loses!" I said quietly. Sasuke sat up. "You're awake?" I half shouted, half whispered. He nodded, then looked over at Chihiro, who looked horrified. He cracked his knuckles as beads of sweat poured down her face.
Special Deleted Scene Four!!
"Uhhh... Hisakata.. Look at what Kakashi gave me..." Sasuke said to me. I walked over and looked at what he was holding. "WHAT? ICHA ICHA PARADISE AND ICHA ICHA VIOLENCE?" I shouted, sweat forming on my face. Sasuke turned and nodded. "But... You're twelve!! He shouldn't be giving you those!!" I said to him. He shrugged and opened one of the books. His eyes widened and he started to drool. I couldn't see what he was looking at. I sat down next to him and closed his jaw with my finger. I wiped the drool on his shirt, though he didn't care. His jaw opened again as he started to drool some more. I closed his jaw with my finger, wiped it on his shirt then ripped the book away from him and looked at what he was drooling over. There stood a girl with bright blue, shoulder length hair. Her eyes were lavender. She was wearing a red bikini. "WHAT? THAT'S ME!!" I shouted, falling over, my eyes spinning. Sasuke walked over and grabbed the books from me, comparing the picture of the girl with me. "Sasuke! Give me that!" I shouted, snatching the books out of his hand, ran over to the window, and threw them outside. I then jumped out and landed on my feet. "Whoa! Who knew that I could land on my feet from the second story!" I muttered suprizingly. I grabbed the books and ran to Kakashi, who was at a newspaper stand, staring at the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated. "Kakashi-sensei!!" I shouted, finding him quicker than I had expected. He glanced over at me, then went back to staring at a modle for a sky blue swimsuit. "What are you doing, giving these books to Sasuke!?" I yelled at him, showing him the books.
"Ohh.. Those! I didn't give him the real versions.. I just gave him a version that I made with you in swimsuits for him.
"HOW DID YOU GET THAT?" I yelled.
"Hehehe... That's something for me to know and you to NOT find out..." He chuckled.
"THAT'S NOT FAIR!!" I shouted, whacking him on the back of his head.
Special Deleted Scene Five!!
"Sasuke!! Watch out for those- Oh.. I think you already found out..." Chihiro shouted as Sasuke came tumbling down the stairs.
"That's something that I'd expect from Hisakata..." Gaara said.
"Sasuke!" I shouted, running down the stairs after him. He was unconsious. "Chihiro!! Call 911!!" I shouted from the bottom of the stairs. Chihiro ran down and into the kitchen and grabbed a pink and white telephone. "Hello? Operator? Give me the number for 911!!" Chihiro shouted into the phone after dialing zero.
"Do you like my hair?" The operator's voice called out in a barbie voice.
"I DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THAT!! I HAVE A CRISIS ON MY HANDS!!!" Chihiro shouted.
"I like your pink shirt.." The voice called out again.
"WHAT'S THE NUMBER FOR 911? AND I'M NOT WEARING A PINK SHIRT!! IT'S LIGHT PINK!" Chihiro shouted and slammed the phone down. 'Uggg... Why did I keep that?' I thought, clutching Sasuke's body. "You do know that's just a Barbie phone, right?" Gaara muttered, walking down the stairs.
"NO IT ISN'T!! HISAKATA! WHERE'S YOUR OTHER PHONE?" Chihiro shouted. I pointed in the direction of the phone. She dialed zero and shouted, "OPERATOR!! WHAT'S THE NUMBER FOR 911?"
"My name's Aurora!" The voice said. 'It's that princess phone...' I sighed.
"I DON'T CARE IF YOUR NAME IS AURORA!!! MY SISTER'S BOYFRIEND CAME CRASHING DOWN THE STAIRS, something I'd expect from my sister, BUT ANYWAYS, I NEED THE NUMBER FOR 911! CAN YOU TELL ME THAT?"
"I'm going to a tea party today!" The voice said once more. Chihiro slammed the phone down on the reciever. "Chihiro... Why not try their REAL phone, instead of those toys..." Gaara suggested, poking Chihiro's neck to signal that he was behind her. "THAT'S A GREAT IDEA!!"
Ehhehe.... anime tears flowing down face How is this an in the making of Memory of the Stars....? I can't believe that my story is done already!! Wow! It's already been about a month! I've been given time to write some bonus things, and draw them too... So... I'll tell you about the genesis of Memory of the Stars... sparkling chibi eyes I began in about April or May on some stories.. But all of them were just too blah... I'll explain a few to you.. Just the main ones, that is... Looking into the Face of Death is about this girl with no family who was put on a team with Sasuke, Naruto and Sakura... In the story, Naruto is her best friend... At first, she didn't like Sasuke, and couldn't stand being on a team with him or his crazy fangirl, Sakura... So, they get into the teams and the girl, Ahiro, freaks out about Sasuke following her.. She thinks that he likes her, and turns into a cat.. So.. The story just got stupider and stupider, because Ahiro and Sasuke fall in love.. Zabuza and Itachi (Supposed to be Orochimaru) go after her, they're supposed to kill her... She gets hurt and is sent to the hospital... Bla bla blah... The story really did get stupider as it went on...
The next I'd like to tell you about is one called Does he Love me?. It's about a girl named Tia who lives next door to Sasuke. She has a hidden dark side that goes on a rampage every time she lets it loose, and in the beginning, she unleashes it to get rid of an intruder... She eventually falls in love with Neji and Sasuke, but the two love her so much that they won't let the other have her... If the other gets her, then they tried to kill Tia, to change her mind... Tia has a little fox yokai, Yopopo, and she nearly dies in the book.. Neji killed her, and Sasuke is crying over her body... A blue flame surrounded her body and she stood up, somewhat like in that episode of Inuyasha with the thunder brothers... She finds out about this plan that Sasuke has to keep Neji away from her... And she ends up with Neji.. So, the story just plainly ends in Sasuke kisses her, and kills her.. Not very interesting if you'd ask me...
So.. The idea of Memory of the Stars sparked. It just came to me in my sleep.. I was on vacation at the time in Miami, Florida, playing Rave Master, a video game. I beat the game as Haru and read what it had to say.. Something about him setting off for the Memory of the Stars... That's where I got the name... I suddenly turned and told my sister that I had a really great idea.. I said that there would be this girl with powers like no other.. Hisakata's origional powers was that she was a star tamer.. At night, she could make stars fly down from the sky and strike her opponent.. She was supposed to wear some sort of Greek-like outfit, but I changed it to the black chinese shirt and jeans. Hisakata's origional appearance was that she had long, golden brown hair and she grew her bangs out. She was supposed to have pigtails and would wear a greek like outfit, as I said earlier.. Her eyes were supposed to be brown, so if you saw a the picture of her, you wouldn't even recognize her as herself now... Oops!! I think I ran out of time! Bye!
