Seika POV
Omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod omigod
OMIGOD
I'm actually leaving the castle
With my sisters
To go to another village
We had left the castle a few hours ago and in a few minutes we'll be there
Me and my sisters were in a carriage which was driven by two horses
I was so excited, I was practically bouncing on my seat with excitement
I felt someone's hand on my thigh, I looked up and saw Okami with a black transparent mask covering half her face, (we all had to wear these because it's our culture) but I did see her smile,
"Calm yourself Seika, we'll be there soon" she tells me calmly
I inwardly squealed "I know but.... This is my first time outside the castle... WOW! What's that?!"
I pointed to a gate I knew what it was, I mean, I've been living behind those things ever since I was born
Aya looked up from her paperwork with a hm? And leaned a little to her right to see the gate I pointed at
I saw her smile gently "Oh look at that, we're here"
I nearly screamed in excitement, but before I could even open my mouth, Aya looked over at me "No Seika, I'll let you have fun soon, but for now, please be mature"
Great, I'm going to have to suck up to her
I smile and nod as I put my red mask on
My heart started pounding when Aya opened the door, and stepped out, she was soon followed by Tora and Sora, Lily, Okami, and lastly
Me
It took all of my strength to hold back my excitement, this may be my first and last time I'll be stepping on fresh dirt and grass, all I've been stepping on my entire my life was stone, marble and glass, this was very scary yet exciting at the same time,
As I put my foot down on the ground, I inwardly smiled and followed my sisters in a line,
Aya being in the front, then Sora, then Tora, Lily, Okami, and I was in the back,
I followed them keeping my head down like the others, we were all carrying fans to cover the bottom half of our faces, it was annoying,
But I just needed to wait,
I'm very patient after all,
I heard Okami stop in front of me and I followed, and since my head was lowered I couldn't see,
But I did hear,
"Kotetsu Hagane and Izumo Kamizuki, it's been a while, has it not?" Said Aya, she was talking to the two as if she knew them a while back
"Ai?" Said one of the voices he sounded shocked but...who the hell is Ai?
"It's good to see you again Ai" said another voice
I couldn't tell them apart, so I had to live with it
I heard Aya sigh "I hope you remember that I'm a queen now"
I heard them gulp "Yes Ai- I mean your highness"
"Now I'm here for business and I thought I'd let my sisters out for fresh air"
I resisted the temptation to look up at my eldest sister and give her the 'We-are-not-your-dogs' look,
"So if you would. Please open the gates, and do please escort us inside"
Ok I'm ready
"Very well your highness" one of the voices said as I heard the gates open
This time I didn't resist temptation, I gave in and looked up,
And so did the others,
It was beautiful, when the gates opened, I saw various shops, families having time for themselves, and more things I don't really get to see in the castle
My eyes widened at how beautiful it was, yes I've seen grander and more spontaneous things, but the fact that the village had a simple and serene aura just struck me, making me realize that there are more beautiful things in the world,
I saw my sisters starting to walk, so I followed as well,
We continued walking until we reached a large building,
"This is where the Hokage resides your highness" says the guy who I bet was Kotetsu
"And please, feel free to visit us your grace" says the Izumo guy
My sister smiled gently and nodded at them and entered the building,
Which me and my sisters followed as well,
I continued to follow wherever my sister led me until we stopped at a door,
Aya didn't knock, she gracefully waited for someone to open the door for her,
Someone then recognized her and opened the door for her, and bowing of course,
I heard lots of talking so I got nervous a little, I'm afraid of public speaking, I'm getting better though!
When she walked in with us following, the noise died down and I felt all eyes on us, I felt somewhat disturb but I made sure not to lose my posture,
"I have arrived for the meeting Hokage sama" she says as she bows, which me and the others followed,
I heard whispers, lots of them, but tried shrugging the weird feeling off
"Ah yes, I've been waiting your highness" says the voice of an old man,
"Well then, may I sit somewhere?" My sister asks, then we were lead to a vacant seat, but before she sat, she looked at us
"Sora and Tora can stay but three of you can go" she whispers at us
I stare at her with disbelief
I thought we were going to enjoy together
"Why" I whispered back
She sighed " I need to ask Sora for opinions, and as a queen I'm not allowed to get my hands dirty, so just in case something bad happens, I have Tora, besides don't you guys want to have fun?" She asks with a smirk,
I gasp in the inside and crack a smile,
Aya 'so eyes then lit up as if she just remembered something, "Oh, Hokage sama, if it's alright, can you ask a few ninjas to look after my sisters?" She asks
The Hokage smiled and nodded "I was prepared and asked a Jonin and his team to escort them around the village they are outside right now"
Aya smiled gently at him "Thank you" after that, she looked at us and signaled us to go
Me, Lily and Okami bowed and all three of us walked out, and the moment the door shut...
I squealed in excitement,
Okami chuckled at my childishness and Lily smiled,
We walked out of the building with smiles on our faces but it was still covered by our masks, but we were very satisfied by the compromise, but as we waited outside for the Jonin and his team, I heard something from my left
"GRAHHH! Did the old man seriously give us another D-rank mission? You'd think that after we proved ourselves at the Mist village with Zabuza and all, he'd give us a higher rank mission, but instead we're stuck playing tour guide to a bunch of new people, this I stupid their not even here yet! Believe it!" Said the voice of a boy, who's chakra caught my attention,
Wow, his chakra is just..... wow....
I looked to my left and saw a blonde boy in an orange jumpsuit, a pink haired girl wearing a red dress, an emo duckbutt, and a masked guy with silver gravity defying hair
The pink one sighed and crossed her arms "Naruto, do you ever shut up? Your so loud! Right Sasuke kun?"
Oh my gosh, she's so loud
The emo duck named Sasuke rolled his eyes and let out a "Hn"
This guy knows exactly what I'm saying
The blonde one named Naruto huffed and looked at the gravity defying man "Kakashi Sensei, what's taking them so long?!"
Hyper much?
The gang leader rolled his eyes as well "Sakura's right Naruto, you are loud"
Taking sides ey?
I sweat dropped and looked up at my sisters, Lily was staring at them with a 'Don't-tell-me-it's-these-guys' look
Okami was staring at the Kakashi guy with shock, I wonder why?
I saw Lily inhale deeply and exhaled as she walked up to them
Oh no
Don't tell me it's these guys who're supposed to-
"Excuse me, but I don't mean to intrude but, are your here to show three people around the village?" My sister asks,
Please say no please say no please say-
"Yeah, why lady?" Asked Naruto with a very annoyed voice and crossed arms
Lily stared at the boy and smirked "I don't really think that is the proper way to speak to someone like me"
Uh oh, in the inside, Lily's probably pissed and triggered, she's really good at hiding that, and since she has no trace of wrinkles on her face or any aura's containing stress since she was raised to be a "perfect" princess, and a perfect princess must act perfect and proper,
At least by her standards,
Naruto let out a "Hmph" and stuck his tongue at her "I don't take orders from you!"
"Naruto don't be rude! I'm so sorry ma'm, he doesn't think straight" said Sakura who apologized to her
Lily's smirk grew wider "It looks as if he doesn't think at all"
I smiled a little when she said so,
Naruto growled at her and nearly pounced on her but was held back by Kakashi
"Naruto..no....just no" he said
"SHE JUST INSULTED ME!"
I saw Okami continue to stare at Kakashi
Ewwww she likes someone already
I rolled my eyes and witnessed the events unfold
"Well excuse me, that's not the best way to talk to the people your supposed to be touring"
At those words Naruto stopped and just stared at her, as well as the others
Lily smiled "Yes, it's us"
Then suddenly Naruto starts kneeling before her with his hands clasped together "IM SO SORRY MA'M I REALLY AM!"
I won't lie when I say that I nearly laughed when I saw Lily's disgusted face which said 'Eww-what-is-that?'
Then after which a few minutes of him sucking up, Lily shook him off saying it was fine
"O-okay, now, the first place I would like to visit is the clothes shop! I would very much want me and my sisters to change before we get well acquainted all of you" she said
I sighed, Lily loves clothes and has an odd obsession with it, well, being the most beautiful out of all of us has its upsides and downsides
"Of course! I know the perfect place!" Said Sakura in an excited tone, she grabs Lily's arm and drags her to a certain direction which made me and Okami follow them as well as the others
