Chinatsu: Both Ninja and Wizard

Ch. 29

Chinatsu's POV

"Are you sure it was seasickness?" Sakura had questioned me. I had turned to her with a shrug. "I mean, if that guy thinks I have it, then I should trust what he said right? Isn't that his whole job?" 

"No, Chinatsu, that's only with doctors, but what Tazuna said does seem true, you did look like hell on the boat," Kakashi had butted into their conversation. "Though with seasickness, it takes a while a couple of hours to get over. So I would see how that would be suspicious."

"Hey wait! Chinatsu didn't that happen to you when we were pushing each other down the Hokage mountain a couple of months ago?" Naruto also butted in, holding onto my arm. I nod. "Oh, yeah in that wheelbarrow we found next to that apartment! That was so cool! I almost threw up!" I laughed. "But weren't we like 10 when that happened?" Naruto shook his head. "No that was a different time. A couple of months ago you did actually throw up!" 

I looked ahead confused. It took me a hot second before I lit up in realization. "OH! That was the time you fell off the Fourth Hokage's face!" I laughed. "I remember! That shit was funny! Asuma had to catch you before you died."  We had laughed while the rest of the team and Tazuna deadpanned at us. Sakura sighed. "Only them..." She muttered. 

We continued down the trail. It was pretty boring, but every now and then I would bring up things from the past. Like that time I made ramen for the first time and ate it raw. Naruto was with me and before he could explain how to cook it, I just ate that sucker. He was so disappointed in me, it was hilarious. OH! There was also this other time where I fell asleep during knife-throwing training and almost stabbed myself in the arm. I think I was the reason why we switched to a bit more duller ones, this just meant we also had to use styrofoam boards. 

Well, it was boring up until we saw a white rabbit. We had to stop since it came out of nowhere and just sat in the middle of the trail.  I'm pretty sure we stared at that shit for a solid five minutes. "WHOA, who knew bunnies can come in pure white!!" I exclaim, lunging at the bunny. I saw it look my way with a terrified expression. Before it could do anything I had tackled it anyway. I rolled on to my back and held up the squirming bunny up like a trophy. 

"Kakashi! We gotta keep this thing! Look at it! Its eyes are blue!" I cooed, my nose touching it's twitching one. I could tell the little stinker wanted to leave. It kept squirming and trying to jump away. 

"No, no no~ you little cutie pie! You are going to live with me! I'll give you a big ol' cage and lots of food and-" I cut myself short, "I barely have enough money to live for myself, but we'll find a way!" My voice wavered slightly. 

"Chinatsu, you are not keeping the bunny," Kakashi crushes my dreams. "But-!" 

"Yeah, Chinatsu, that thing could have rabies or something. It's clearly not a domesticated animal." Sakura pointed out in a dull voice. I sat up from my position and faced them. I held the bunny in my arms as I glared at them. "You don't know that! He could be harmless! I mean don't these things eat like lettuce? Why would it try to eat us?" I shot right back. Ha! That'll prove her wrong! She doesn't even own a pet! She doesn't know what she's talking about! I've had this bunny for two minutes, I'm practically more experienced than her.

"Rabies doesn't mean that they would just eat you. Whenever an animal with rabies bites you you become insane!" She explains. I look at her with confusion. That doesn't make any sense! Animals don't have poison in their teeth, that's only with frogs...... Do frogs have teeth? 

Sakura opens her mouth for only a second to just close it. I grinned. That's right! I'm the smart one in this situation. I looked down at my lap and see little stinker nibbling at my fingers. I cooed at it and used my other hand to scratch it's little head. That's right, I'm naming this thing my little stinker. You know what? Fuck my house, I'll be taking care of you first. As soon as I get home, I'll get you a cage, some food, make you the best bed-OW SHIT, NIBBLING TURNED TO BITTING. NIBBLING. TURNED. INTO. BITING! 

"It's gonna kill me! Kakashi take it off! It has rabies! It'll eat me alive!!" I quickly got up and dangled the rabbit off of my finger. Hoping it'll just let go of my finger.  "DUCK!" Kakashi shouts. I groan frustrated. "No, the bunny! Where did you get a duc- SWORD!" I immediately fall to the ground, the sword a few inches off the top of my head. The bunny was long gone by the time I hit the ground. "Where the hell did that thing come from??" I question, mostly to myself, and look at the location of where the sword had gone. It had lodged itself into a tree. Not only that, a man stood on the hilt of the sword. And I got pissed off. "Hey!" I shouted at the man. He had turned around to look at me.  

"Did you see the dumbass who threw that huge ass sword? I'm gonna beat his ass the moment I see him," I ask him as I look around the area. Whoever did this must be nearby. That fucker made my bunny disappear. It's ok, little stinker, I'll find you soon. 

"Ok," Kakashi had sighed in disappointment, "That's enough out of you," He says and pulls out a paper seal with a couple of words on it. He slaps that on my mouth and I gasp. " MHMMHMM! MhmmHmmm! Mhmmmmhmhmhm!.....MHMM!" I reach for the seal to take it off but it doesn't seem to budge. Kakashi! You old fart! Why'd you put this shit on my face? How do you take it off? Why is it so hard to take off? I kept pulling at my face. One way or another, I'm not moving from this spot until this shit is off. Hopefully, the sticky part of this doesn't make my face sticky.
