Chapter 3 – Recognition!

“I need to see your identification.” Kotetsu said to the four unknown nin.  Both he and  Izumo  were a bit shocked to see Tsubasa shinobi participating in the chuunin exams this year.  It had been over eighteen years since any of their ninja had shown up in Konoha.  Three of them were extremely attractive with their dark skin and light hair, while the third had a much more pale complexion.  Or at least next to the others he did, his white hair seemed forcedly tamed as it poked out in some places.

“Yume Soredeno, Hikari Nerofumi, Soriu Damenagi and Kyo’kitsu Damenagi.” Kotetsu said out load.  “You two are siblings?”

“I’m his older sister.” The girl said although she didn’t seem pleased with this.  The fair skinned boy had a goofy look on his face.  He definitely stuck out between the group with his bandaged face and bright orange jacket.  He almost reminded Izumo of… 

Kyo was thinking back to their conversation from earlier.

‘No-no way-sensei-‘

‘Oh yes way, you’re going to pose as Kyo-kun’s older sister!’

‘What!’ both yelled at her together.  Yume just barked back.

‘Kyo-nobody knows how old you are and with that baby face of yours it’s the most logical decision.’

‘But I know I’m older then her!’

When a vein began to throb in Yume’s head they had stopped arguing.

“Aww-don’t look so disappointed Neechan!” Kyo put his arm around her.  Her shoulder tensed and her lip twitched.

“Kyo’ kitsu, you have approximately three seconds to take you arm off me.”

The boy didn’t wait and he sweatdropped with his hands in front of him.  “Sheesh take a joke Sori-chan.”

“I’m gonna kill you.”

“Finely it’s not me being the target.” Hikari said smugly punching Kyo in the back of the shoulder.

“Oh yeah-not for long!” Kyo had him held down ruffling the green head’s hair with his fist.

“Gah-cut that out!”

“Will you two please stop.” It was Yume-sensei who spoke now, and when she did it was with a dark malice that sent all three of her students into meek obedience.

“Yes sensei.”

Kotetsu handed the papers back to Yume with his own sweatdrop.  “Welcome to Konoha.” The woman nodded and they entered the city.

“Sugoi!” Soriu said as the gate closed behind them.  Kyo gave a long whistle while Hikari just gaped.

“This place is huge!”

“I’ve never seen a city this big.” Kyo said in aww making Yume give a relieved sigh. 

‘Good his memories are still firmly locked.’

“Come on-lets take a look around!” Hikari said excitedly grabbing Soriu’s hand.  For once she didn’t argue.

“What a minute you three, we still need to find an inn.”

“Aww-come on sensei!”

The only way she could keep a dignified face was by turning her head away eyes closed.  Her students all had that child like wonder in there eyes.  “Grrr-alright-you win!  But I want to see all of your butts at the inn before it’s late.  You’re going to need your rest for the exams tomorrow.”
