Naruto Shippuden: The Neo Akatsuki (Spoilers! Some dead characters are revealed!)

OOC: Major Thanks.

BIC: Taka sighed. He hated going to his mother's family reunion. He wasn't allowed to practice during those miserable three days. All he could do was show up and be a quiet kid. It infuriated him. Finally it was over and he was back in Konoha.

He walked around the streets, looking up at a lone hawk in the sky.

 

OOC: Why would he be out of Konoha for Tenten's family reunion? She's from Konoha.

 

OOC: tenten's background is never shown so I had nothing to go with. And maybe it is only her and her parents who live in Konoha.

 

OOC: True. I guess I just thought you had confused her with Temari or something, since I've done that before.

 

Hey Sichi-chan, can you sense anyone around here? Taka asked his Bijuu.Just use your Bykugan yourself the seven-tailed panther replied with a growl. Please Sichi-chan! Taka internally begged. He heard the panther growl in defeat. Arigato Sichi-chan. You owe me midget. HEY! Just because you are an eighty feet tall, you have no right to call me a midget. Everyone else is at least three inches taller than you.

 

Masami sighed as she woke up. She stood up from the couch and stretched a bit. She then rubbed her eyes and looked around. Takashi's no where to be found. She shrugged and walked outside. She then began to walk outside, towards town, when she saw Takashi and Kinen. She smiled and leaned on a wall, as she watched Takashi, a small smirk on her face.

 

Whilst everyone else chatted away, Takashi was blocking everything out but Kinen, and only taking in the presence of people nearby.Three was a crowd..and with someone like Kiri in it, he didn't like the crowd much at all right now.He loved his family but he was just..something else.And he'd rather not associate with a loud mouth.

A new presence drew him from his thoughts and just as soon as he recognized who it was he opened his eyes. ..I'm not going to hear the end of this.. he thought to himself, looking back toward Masami who was smirking right at him."..I..took what you said and I put it to use.." he explained to her.

 

Churo felt so alone and unwanted.

 

Masami smiled at him and nodded. "Good." she said and turned around to walk away. That was the end of that. Usually, she would have bugged him about stuff like this, but she left it alone at what it was. She left them alone, knowing that Takashi was "studying" her still. And being there, she would just be a nuisance to the situation. She began to walk to her home slowly, wind blowing.

 

..That was it?Takashi got up from his seat, leaving Kinen with Kiri for just a moment so he'd be able to talk with Masami.Usually she'd say she was right and brag about it, but now it was different..a sudden change of heart?"Masami." he came to a stop behind her and hoped she did as well."..Where are you going?.." was all he found himself asking.He himself planned to go to the training grounds and pick up the kunai left behind from yesterday.

 

Thanks Sichi-chan! Taka said, running off down the street.

OOC: Is Churo at the training grounds with the others?

 

OOC: No. The others are at Ichiraku Ramen, and Churo is just walking around.

 

OOC: Thanks.

BIC: "Churo!" Taka yelled, waving frantically at his friend.

 

"I don't know. Home probably." she said and turned around. She crossed her arms and yawned. "Why are you following me?" She asked . "Go back!" she said and pushed him back. "Don't leave her." she said and looked back. "She likes you." Masami said with a smile.

 

He looked back, tears in his eyes. I really don't want to be around him while I'm like this. he thought, and poofed away.

 

"!? What the hell?" Taka stared at the spot his firend occupied a few seconds before. He sighed. "Churo always was a little weird." The Hyuuga shrugged his shoulders and walked to the training ground to practice.

 

"She only wants the meal is all.." Takashi said, turning back around and grabbing Masami's wrists, placing them down at her sides with a determined stare."..I tend not to leave a friend out if I can help it..come with me to the training grounds again, we can spend some time together, like before." and he wouldn't take no for an answer.He wouldn't have people he cared about crying or getting upset on his behalf.

Takashi looked back towards the Ramen stand."Kinen..when your finished with my idiot brother, we'll be at the training grounds..meet us there if you want." he nodded to her and looked back toward Misami before heading off towards the training grounds.

OOC: Given permission by Star to skip ahead with her character.

Upon arrival at another set of training grounds away from Taka, Takashi raised his arm and held it on front of Misami.Something was wrong here..he felt a presence..a sinister one..one that wanted to harm them."..Misami..we're not alone here." he muttered to her, looking around carefully for the physical form of this presence.

 

*"Doton: Domu no Jutsu" Taka yelled forming the neccesary hand sign. He stomped one of his heels to the ground and an earth spear rose and hovered in front of him. After gathering chakra in his palm, Taka thrust his arm forward and released the chakra, sending the spear flying through the air and hitting the practice dummy. Taka noticed the spear was a little left from the center. Give it up midget. You might have gotten your father's eyes but you didn't get your mother's deadly accuracy. "Shut it Sichi-chan." Taka replied out loud.

OOC: All of the character are 17 to 18 right? And we are still genin?

 

OOC: The characters are the ages you set them as. And everyone starts as a genin.

 

It was to silent there, someone was with them, just as Takashi said. "I feel a presence." she said out load, more to herself than the Takashi. She looked around quickly for a source of water, so that she can use it in combat. She looked around the area, for places where she can evade if she must. She wasn't scared; scared of what? But this person, or thing, it was watching them, intently. "Maybe it's Kinen, waiting for us?" she said slowly.
