The Daughter of a Sanin

Chapter seven

P.O.V. of Jade
After Kiba and I walk back into the room I go over to Shika who was still sitting up and seemed more relaxed. I lay down next to him but he doesn't take his gaze off Naruto who I trying to flirt with Sakura but it wasn't working well. I laugh at him and then roll over on to my stomach and close me eyes. I can feel Shika's gaze on me and his weight shifting as if he wanted to do something but decided not to.

I look over at him and he is already looking at me. I hide my face hoping he didn't see my blush then out of nowhere I feel someone jump onto my back. Kiba. I roll over so that he is straddling me and glare up at him. I hear Shika scuff and then push Kiba off me.

"Kiba don't be such a drag," he says as he pulls me up. The touch of his skin makes me shiver and blush like crazy. He wraps his arm around my shoulder and we just sit there is silence as he looks out over the others. I hear someone get up and leave with a slam of the door, it was Sasuke. I sigh but feel Shika hold me closer, "don't worry about him."

I nods and then there is a knock on the door, Kiba's mom comes in and says we should go to bed so we can be ready for tomorrow. We all groan but agree and get ready for bed. I turn around so Im not facing the boys and change into one of Kakashi's over sized t-shirts. I go to lay down with the girls but I can feel someone's gaze on me. I shake it of and sit next to Sakura.

"Shika was staring at you while you walked by," she whispers. I blush and turn around to look at him. He was already looking at me but when he catches my glance he slowly move his head to look in the other direction. I snicker, typical boys. I shrug and then lay down to go to sleep.

~Jade's dream~

Again I was in the house that was on fire, but this time it looks empty. As if no one lived in it for years. The door is busted open out of no where and I see figures enter.

"This should be good," I hear the voice of my father say, the depression evident. In the last dream I couldn't hear it but now it shows. Kakashi never explained why our father... Killed himself. Anyway, I see the ANBU walk in along with a family who are holding a little girl.

"Kyūseishu will be safe here right?" The women says. She is the one holding the little girl, who has long black hair.

"You need to disguise her but yes, she will be safe," Sakumo, white dang, says. He walks over and kisses her head and the black turns into the purest white, "He will never find her again."

~end of dream~

I wake up with pain in my head, everything was in slow motion. There was no air in my lungs to scream so I just sit up and pant. Kiba wakes up and crawls over to me. He holds me as I shake. I try to talk but no words come out.

I fall back asleep in his arms and am welcomed to the emptyness of nothing. I wake up to something wet on my face, I really hope it's Akamaru, but opening one eye I see Kiba licking me. I push him off and sit up.

"Gross." He just laughs and I see everyone else already dressed.

"Is this why your brother is always late? It took forever to wake you," Naruto asks.

I laugh lightly and say," yeah, let's go with that." I get up and go to the bathroom to change my clothes. I look at myself and try to picture myself with black hair. I sigh and just put my clothes on and walk back to the room.

We all leave a few minutes later and when I get home I see that Kakashi isn't home. Doing his daily rounds... I sigh and change into some training clothes and go to the training ground.

I just work on aim when I feel someone watching me, I turn around and see Kakashi.

"I think it's time I gave you a better weapon," he says then throws me a spear. I catch it, it was surprisingly light in my hands. "It's a fire spear, I know not your style but the hokage thought other wise. It changes into other weapons. Hit it on the ground and a chai will be connected to the blade for longer distance attacks."

I mess with it for a while and then Kakashi wants me to spare with him so I can get a hang of the spear, it was nice being able to pick long or close range. I still had a bag of kunai if I lose the spear. We walk home in silence and for the next four days we repeat this. Training then walking home. I was nice but finally the day of the second exam comes and no amount of training could prepare me for this.
