Amara went home that night, surprisingly exhausted. She slugishly changed into her PJs, and collapsed unto her bed, out like a light the moment her head hit her pillow.
~~~~~~
Her eyes opened almost as soon as they had closed, and she quickly took in her surroundings. Yup. She was in her mind again.
She easily made her way towards Tenshi's cage, grinning up at the beautiful leopardess, who's dark blue eyes shone with love and affection.
"I see you finally got some sleep..." She mused, laying down in her cage. She gently laid her muzzle on her paw, her blue eyes locked on Amara's form.
"Surprisingly. Then again, today was pretty hectic. Then again, what do you expect with a team like mine?" She laughed, walking up to the cage.
The bars were large enough for Amara to squeeze through, which she did. Tenshi ushered her forwards with her tail, smiling softly when Amara cuddled into her furry side.
"It's been a while since we've done this..." Amara said softly, her voice already slurred with sleep. The leopardess crooned slightly, saying nothing. Her blue eyes merely shone with warmth as she wrapped herself around her host, allowing her large heartbeat to soothe the orange-eyed girl further into sleep's gentle embrace.
~~~~~~
"DAMMIT!! I'M LATE AGAIN!!" Amara shouted in frustration, glaring at her alarm clock. After finally getting a good nights sleep, she woke up to see she had once again missed the scheduled time for the team to meet up.
I really hope this doesn't become a habit... She sighed, before quickly getting dressed. This time, she wore an orange tank top that stopped just under ribs, with black leggings. On her head was a backwards cap that had the kanji for Bad Kitty, something that was a personal trend of hers.
After strapping on some flack and orange finger-less gloves, she tied her hair up in a high ponytail, her bangs in their usual place over her eye. She smirked at herself in the mirror, before grabbing both her weapons pouch and her Konoha headband, tying the headband around her neck. (stupid Twist, never actually telling the readers where she put her headband T-T)
~~~~~~
"YOU'RE LATE!!" Sakura and Nzruto shouted at her, as she arrived at their usual meeting grounds.
She chuckled sheepishly, rubbing the back of her neck. "Well, ya see... I walked under a ladder on the way here, and because I didn't want bad luck, I had to go the long way around."
Naruto and Sakura looked at her incredulously, causing Amara to slowly back away from them. "Anywho~ Um...Look! It's Sasuke!" Amara said excitedly, pointing in a random direction.
The pinkette turned to that direction, hearts in her eyes, while Naruto faced the direction she had pointed with a glare, only for both genin to realize they were staring at nothing.
Amara took this opportunity to quickly climb up a tree, settling herself against it. Kakashi should be here any minute now...
She was proven right, when only a few minutes later did their sensei arrive.
"Yo." He said casually, giving his team a slight wave.
"YOU'RE LATE!!"
Kakashi sweatdropped, backing away ever so slightly. "Uh... Well, you see, a black cat crossed my path, so I had to take the long way around."
