Sota Sage : Chapter 8 : New Teammate

I don't own Naruto or anything related BUT I do own my OC's and my own plot lines!

"-ke up soon, Sota-Chan." I fluttered my eyelids open to see I was in a white room. It seemed to be dusk as I looked up the window but my eyes went to the sound of shuffling feet. I looked over and saw that it was Naruto, leaving with his hands in his pockets. His shoulders were slumped and he had the walk of sadness as I watched him. 

"Naru...to?" I whispered and he stopped. He turned half way to look at me with surprise as we made eye contact. He brightened and jumped to my bedside, making me chuckle at his childish actions. "Are you okay? Old Man Moku said that when you summoned him it took a lot out of you as well as the Jutsu's you used to save Gaara..." Naruto trailed off and I sat up in bed. 

"Is Gaara okay?" I asked and Naruto nodded. "Yeah....Granny Chiyo used a special Jutsu to...bring Gaara back....she gave her life to Gaara in order to save him." He said and looked down. "A true shinobi." I whispered and Naruto looked up at me. "That's what Kakashi-Sensei said." He said and he let out a chuckle. "Gaara thought you were dead too but after we told him what happened, he said to say thank you for him." I gave him a smile. "For another Jinchuuriki, 'Thank you' is all I need." I said, giving him a closed eyed smile. Naruto chuckled and I saw him with a faint tinge of pink on his cheek. 

"Excuse me?" I looked up and saw Tsunade. "How are you feeling, Sota?" She asked and I smiled. "Well rested." She nodded and I laid down as she ran a hand over my frame. "Well...your Chakra is fully restored and any injuries are healed...no surprise there....Once you get dressed, you can leave but try not to do what you did last time." She glared at me and I swallowed. "H-hai, Tsunade." She humped in triumph before leaving. I sat up in bed and Naruto set my clothes next to me. "Arigato, Naru-kun. I'll be out shortly." He nodded before walking out of the room. I sighed and slowly began to change. 

I walked out in my normal attire with the Crimson red outfit as well as my high heels. Naruto smiled at me and stood from sitting on a bench. "Are you ready to meet our new teammate?" I rose an eyebrow. "I didn't know we needed a new teammate...." I said, trailing off as I looked towards the ground with a frown. "It's to replace Sasuke, Sota. I'm not going to let them replace you. I promise! Believe it!" Naruto said, smiling at me. I gave him a smile back as we walked to where we were supposed to meet the others. 

I saw Sakura speaking to two new people. One was a Jounin by the way he stood. He had brown hair with a silver face metal thing or something framing his face. He wore the standard Jounin/Chuunin attire as well. Tan skin and black eyes. The other boy made me shiver. Just being so close to him sent my nerves on the fritz.....and not in a good way either. It was a creeped out feeling.

He had pasty white skin, black eyes as well as black hair. He had a mid drift grey zip up shirt with a black shoulder jacket that was short as well. A small sword was on his back as his weapons pouch was behind him on his left side. Black pants with some sort of gadget on his right thigh. He wore wrappings inder it and black sandals. 

As if sensing us, they all turned our way. "Hiya." The boy faked a smile. "Y-YOU!?" Naruto pointed to the new boy. Sakura and I eyed the two before the new Jounin guy sighed. "Um...from now on...Team Kakashi...I'll be taking Kakashi's place as -" "-Naruto, do you know this person?" Sakura asked and I nodded from next to her. "Sorry about before. I just wanted to gauge the ability of my new team member. I just didn't know how much I'd have to look after the little prick with no balls." I glared at him and I walked forward. "WHAT-!?" I cut Naruto off as I slapped the new boy across the face, making him hit the pillar to my left. 

"Sota! He's our new teammate!" Sakura gasped and I crossed my arms, glaring at the boy. Minato dropped onto my shoulder from the trees and this boy rubbed his cheek as he gazed at me with no emotion. "You must be the tree hugging slut I read about." A tick mark appeared as Naruto lunged but was caught by Sakura. Me? I walked right up to him and grabbed the front of his shirt, lifting him into the air.
