White Shinigami (Naruto fanfic)

Chapter 31: Takara Uzumaki Part Two

Don't own the picture. Not one bit. If you know who the artist is, tell him/her they are amazing. If you know who the character is then I like you. If you don't... I still like you.

Recap:
"Takara!" The girl shouted jumping into the red haired girl's arms.

"I'm so glad your safe. I went out out to get some supplies and you were gone!" Takara hugged her deeply before pulling away with a dark look. "Where did you go?"

"Oh... Um..." The girl looked nervous. "I uh.. Went out?"

"You went looking for these guys didn't you, Chikako?!" Takara shouted her red hair flying behind her. Takara then hugged her again. "You got captured and I was so worried."

So Chikako is her name... I think I'll remember that. They seemed to have a nice relationship. I started walking away, but I only took five steps before feeling somebody's hand on my shoulder. I turned around to see Chikako.

"Um... I a-appreciate what you did." She said quietly. "Don't take to much into it! Your still a boy!"

"Huh?" I snorted. "What was that, Chikako? Did you say something?"

"No way I'm saying it again! Up yours!" Chikako jumped at me glaring, which made me fall onto my rump. "Stupid boys."

"Huh? Who's this?" Takara asked grinding her fist into Chikako's head. I heard her mutter 'don't be rude.'

"I'm Hiro." I said tapping my foot on the ground nervously. I didn't want to stay. I've been here too long.

"Well... I'm Takara Uzumaki and this is Chikako Fuinto." She smiled at me offering her hand.

I quaintly took it and she lifted me up to my feet. Uzumaki? Like... Naruto? They didn't look alike. She had red hair and green eyes. If they are related it's most likely really distant.

"Nice to meet you." I returned her smile with a small one. "I've got to get going."

"Absolutely not." She wouldn't let go of my hand. "I can tell your alone. You look dirty and hungry. The least we can do in your thanks is one, Get you a shower and two, get you some food."

"No, but thanks for-" I started to say as my stomach interrupted me.

"That's it then." Takara grabbed Chikako's hand and began to pull us along. "If your alone, you can be part of our family."

"Why?" I asked in disbelief. Through the places I've been through people weren't this kind, and the adventure I had today just proves my point.

"I want to help everyone I can. In any small way." She stopped smiled gently. "I believe that a small act of kindness can change someone's life. If we could strike this kind of change then maybe the world would be a better place."

"People like you are rare." I stated. People thought mostly for themselves by nature. I mean there are certain circumstances, but It can't be helped.

"Don't dis our dream!" Chikako shouted. I stopped. There was such passion in her eyes. Did I ever have passion like that? Something so genuine, I can't compare.

"It's such a lovely dream." I whispered pulling a piece of hair behind my ear.

•—•(yes, beymax)(oh my god. Face palm. Just realized my character's fake name is Hiro.)

We reached a part deep in the forest. There was a rundown shrine by a spring. It was beautiful. I giggled softly at the small garden. It was filed with fruits and vegetables of all sorts. They had made a perfect little home here.

It had been a while since I laughed.

"This is our home, and it could be your home too Hiro." Takara ruffled my hair before pulling back.

"Well, I'm definitely not sharing my room." Chikako shouted indignantly.

We walked up onto the porch, and I could hear the moans of the place. It was old. Probably the war era, when the clans were all at each other's throats.

"I going to show Hiro around, can go pick something to make supper with?" Takara said to Chikako. It was more of an order than a question.

"Anything?" She asked. Takara nodded. Chikako looked really excited.

As Chikako ran off, I followed Takara into the shrine. The inside was cleaned up inside. You could see that people had made it a home. There were pictures of them together against the walls. What right did I have to intrude?

"You can stay in this room." Takara opened a door. "You get comfortable I'll be back in a few."

"Tha-" I started, but was interrupted before I could finish.

"Don't say thanks. It's lost it's meaning." Takara ordered dryly. I was startled. "Say 'I appreciate' instead."

"A-alright." I was about to say what she told me, but she had already walked away.

The room was simple, but it was a room. I had come to appreciate these kind of things. Even simple and bare it was beautiful. Not everyone was as privileged as I was.

"Hiro?" I heard someone say from behind me. It was Takara and she was carrying a towel as well as shampoo. "You should probably take a bath. No dirty children in my house."

"Where?" I asked.

"Follow me." Takara told me. Takara started leading me around the house. She opened a sliding door and inside was a wooden tub. It was an old design, yet it was still clean and pretty. " It's already warm, I got that for you."

"Tha- I appreciate that, thank you," I told her. She gave a smile and left.

I slowly took off my dirty clothes and stepped in the water. I was covered with in dirt. It's no wonder they wanted me to take a bath. I mean I hadn't taken a bath like this in a while. I usually just jumped in a stream or something,

"Ahhhh...." I sighed relaxing in the water.

I washed myself in every crevice, between my toes too. I throughly washed my hair noticing how much mud came out of it. I think my hair just became a whole shade lighter.

When I had made sure to clean everywhere I stepped out. The room was steamy from the hot water. As I stepped out I saw the water drip from me quickly getting the mat wet. As I was reaching for a towel the door opened.

"Hiro, supper is rea-" Chikako stopped and stared. "Ready..."

"Kyaaa!" I squealed quickly covering myself with the towel. My face was unbearably red. This girl had just seen me... Naked.

"Your a girl....." Chikako trailed off with a surprised expression.

You know the drill ;)

Oh my god, I love Kpop. If anybody gets me a high five for you!
I absolutely can't get enough of it. I love EXO, yes that mean EXO-K and EXO-M. I also love BigBang, GOT7, BTS, etc. My bias though is Suho.
