Reincarnation AU
After Naruko comes back to her family for the holiday. At that time, she meets other boys from her high school in her hometown.
But at that time, she meets a boy that she never meets before but has a feeling she knows him.
Story:
"I'm home!" Naruko said as she came inside. "Ah! Naruko! Welcome back." Minato said as he came out from the kitchen. "Uncle Tobirama gave us the tea," Naruko said as she showed the bag. "Oh! How wonderful." Minato said as he took it and then walked back to the kitchen.
"Oh, Naruko," Kushina said as she came with laundry in her hands. "Hello, mom. Did something happen while I was away?" Naruko asks.
"Not really. But we got new a new neighbor." Naruko just looked at her mother.
"Really?" She said. "Yea, that's right," Kushina said.
"I should say hi to them," Naruko said. Kushina just smiled. "They have a boy the same age as you. I hope you get along with him." Kushina said before she left.
'Oh, really? I hope it wouldn't be, what was his name again from the east? Meh...' Naruko shrugged off after she placed all of her stuff in her room before she left the house.
As soon as she left the house, something flew to her head.
"Ow! What the? Boomerang?" Naruko said. "Oh sorry! That should be mine." A guy with a cat hoodie said. Naruko just walked up to him and gave him through the fence.
"Are you a new neighbor?" Naruko asks. "Yea, that's right. I'm Kankuro. The middle child." Kankuro said.
"Do I need to think about stereotypes about how the middle children are being treated or not?" Naruko asks.
"Huh? No no, all three of us are treated equally. How old are you?" He asks.
"I'm 17," Naruko said. "Oh, my younger brother is the same age," Kankuro said. "Is that true?" Naruko asks.
"Yea, do you have something important today?" Kankuro asks.
"No, all free this week. Before I need to go back to High School." Naruko said. "Oh, I see. Want to come inside? Just to meet my siblings." Kankuro said. "Sure, I wanted to say hi to you," Naruko said. Then she jumped over the fence and walked with Kankuro.
"Sory with a lot of sand here. We came from the east, and mom is trying to make her plants with sand. And, with the comfort, we placed all sands here." Kankuro said.
"It's fine. I was in Egypt with my class for a school excursion." Naruko said. Kankuro just smiled.
"Ladies first," Kankuro said after he opened the door. Naruko just began to take off the shoes as she came inside, same with Kankuro.
"Are your parents at home?" Naruko asks. "No, mom is out shopping as our dad is working," Kankuro said.
"Who are you talking with Kankuro?" A young male voice came into the scene.
"Who who. With a guest of course." Kankuro said sarcastically.
Then the red-haired boy looked at his brother for a while, then he looked at Naruko. His face became softer, but with no emotion.
"I'm Naruko. Naruko Uzumaki." Naruko presented herself. "I'm Gaara," Gaara said. "Do you want some tea?" Kankuro asks. "Oh, yes please," Naruko said. Kankuro smiled before he walked away.
"So~, what school do you go to?" Naruko asks as Gaara walked to the living room, and she followed after him. "I will go to Leaf High School next week," Gaara said as he sat down on the couch.
"Really! I also go there." Naruko said. Gaara just patted the empty place on the couch next to him. "I'm planning to be in gardening classes. Just love to create with flowers in the garden." Gaara said as Naruko sat on the couch.
"Oh, I see. I have one friend that also goes there." Naruko said. "Really? What's their name?" Gaara asks. "Oh, Sakura Haruno. But she is mostly interested in poisonous flowers." Naruko said.
"Sakura?" Gaara said. "Yea, do you know her?" Naruko asks. "No, no, I just, heard that in Japan is popular with the Sakura name. But, I didn't think it was 'that' popular." Gaara said.
'Right, he and his family is from Egypt. Hmm, he does look familiar. Back when I was Empress, I do remember there was an East gardener that was always at his job. But he was wearing his clothes that even his face was hidden...' Naruko thought.
Soon Kankuro came inside the living room with teas. "We always have interesting roots," Kankuro said. "Really? Do you have royal roots?" Naruko asks.
"Not that roots. Our ancestor was the Empress of this country as her favorite gardener." Kankuro said.
"Really?" Naruko asks with shock. "Yep, these two were close. We had the painting of him, but, it's burned..." Kankuro said.
'Ouch, that sucks...' Naruko thought.
Next week
Leaf High School
Medical classes
Sakura was smashing plants as she poured some water. Then Neji came inside. "Sakura?" Neji was surprised to see her. "Oh! Neji! Hello!" Sakura turned around as she was hiding the bowl. "What are you doing here? I thought you are teaching gardening." Neji said.
"Yea, you know, here were some instruments that we sometimes use. So, the teacher asked me to do something, and done." Sakura said.
"Oh, I didn't know that," Neji said. "Well, I will take this bowl for a while. See ya another time." Sakura said as she left the medical room.
Then Neji's smile faded. He looked around the table and found a plant. 'A stinging nettle....' He thought as he took on his medical glove. Then he picked it up.
'It can easily burn someone's skin....' He thought.
