Gai : Kakashi ! Are you ready ?

" Hai Hai. I'm coming." Kakashi comes out with a kimono.

Gai ; not bad Kakashi. Not bad.

Kakashi: I also asked Mai along. Let's wait for her.

Gai ; she can come ? No need to cover anbu duties.

Kakashi: she's anbu platoon commander for this time's Matsuri. She can afford to walk around and enjoy a bit

Gai ; work on the job huh. I see. I see.

The door on Mai's side opens and she comes out with a yukata on " sighs. I forgot how troublesome it was to wear this."

Kakashi: you look pretty.

Mai ; I guess. My mom brought it over for me. Said I should fully enjoy the Matsuri. Not wear some Shinobi clothes.

Gai ; I agree !!

Kakashi: you should wear it more often maybe.

Mai ; let's go.

Mai ; I'm rarely enjoying a Matsuri. Can we not have a competition

Gai : eh... X_X llll

Kakashi: maa... Maa... Let's just go with what mai wants.

Mai : I want to watch fireworks. But they're not until 8pm huh...

Gai: we can play games. There's lots.

Mai ; I will sit at that dango store and have some dessert. You guys go have some fun.

Gai : Mai. Join us ! It will be fun !

Mai ; it's really fine. I will just have some dango.

Kakashi: wah. I must be not in a good state today.

Gai : worried about Mai ?

Kakashi: gomen gai. We have fun other times. Is that ok ?

Gai ; of course!! No one should be alone in a matsuri! I will go find my students and disturb them instead. Oh !! I see Lee and Ten Ten !

Lee ; sensei !!!

Gai ; Lee !!!

Kakashi goes back to the dango store and sees all kinds of food around her. She was eating a daifuku. He sits down beside her and takes one " um~~ Red bean."

Mai ; pay for your own.

Kakashi: foodie. Not playing any games ?

Mai : when I was young , I watched my dad play the games and win prizes for me. Kind of too old for that anymore...

Kakashi: you're loving the food. Food is your Matsuri.

" Urusei !! (Shut up) " Mai giggled " I used to send the four of them to the Matsuri to each buy one item for the team. We would share it while we were on duty. "

Kakashi: I remember. When you and I were on the same squad and had one rotation to do matsuri security. You sneaked off to buy food and gave me some.

Mai : you scolded me ! But took it anyway !!

" it was wrong. But you bought it anyway. Don't waste you know." He takes another daifuku

Mai ; stop eating my food !! Mister !! Can I have one takoyaki ?!!

" Ok !! "

Kakashi: the fireworks are starting soon. Shall we get to higher ground ?

Mai takes the takoyaki " let's go."

They body flickers to on top of a plastic arc decoration. They sat on top of it and watched the fireworks go.

Mai ; watching fireworks in such a big space... It's kinda different huh.

Mai reached her door " Next time invite me again ok ?! " She gives him a bag of fried banana.

Kakashi: I'm not your dustbin !

Mai : I had a lot of fun !! Oyasumi !!

He watched her enter back her house " .... I already have a home huh..."
