My Friend of Misery: Chapter 1

My Friend of Misery

In The Hidden Waterfall Village

Outside of the Waterfall Village, Makoto had lost his chance to tell Tausha what he really felt. Like a stone being thrown to a glass, shattering all of his chances of being with Tausha. He has come to realize that she had someone in her life & had loved her back. Lost in his thoughts on why Tausha nearly getting herself killed when she saw the very first time when Gaara turned into the demon with in.

Shocked & a bit annoyed at what she did, in the end Gaara returned to normal realizing that he was not alone and that someone was risking their life & admitting to him that this one girl loves him.

Makoto taking another few punches & kicks to the tree before he finally fell to his knees, trying to relax and calming his breathing; he heard someone in a far distance. Lifting up his head making decision weather or not to go and find out whom it was. He noticed someone was following the person and trying to get away. He picks up his feet and goes off to see what was going on.

Half way through the forest, he stopped only to see two girls. One was following & obviously making sure she was ok while the other girls was trying hard not to cry. She was forcing herself not to cry. He stayed and listened to their conversation.

“Kira.. you know this is not worth all of this. What he did was wrong & therefore never was in any way shape or form your fault!” Said Dawn as she was catching up with Kira. “Everybody is deserting this village, giving up on everything else while moving to another village. There's nothing really left for me or much for any of us for that matter.” Kira slumps to the ground on the soft patch of grass. Dawn sat down next to her hugging her.

”Well, look at it this way.. He's messed up royally! He not only went with another girl.. but he impregnated the other girl he was seeing too. He's in the shit hole, not you. Welcome to the single life once again Kira.” Said Dawn. “You haven't been with any guy YET; you've been single more than I have. The best part is that, well.” Kira didn't finish. Dawn looking worried of what she would say. “The best part is what Kira?” asked Dawn looking more worried. “Kira spoke in a lower tone, but enough for Makoto to hear off the distance.

“Well, the best part is that you still have your virginity, where as me I lost it to an ass hole.” Dawn looking a bit confused at first, only for Kira to take notice and forgot that Dawn grew up with her older brother & her nephews, and spent time alone with Gaara during hard times. “OMFG, I'm sorry I still haven't told you the kinds of things you were suppose to know before anything like this would happen.” Dawn shaking her head. “No.. No you're bringing it up now, so why not inform me about it. Besides I keep hearing the other guys * Snorts * mainly Ken saying that if a girl stays a virgin they are loosing their chances in life, and what ever crap come out of his mouth.”

Off the distance Makoto nodding totally agreeing with everything that Ken says. He remains hidden because now these two girls not only are single but also would like to know more about the two. His mind was dancing around thinking of which one of the girls he would like to go out with the most.

“Ken says a lot of things, sometimes I think he was born wrong. Well, when he talks I think his mouth is just his ass. There's always shit flying out of his mouth.” Said Kira gaining laughter. In the distance Makoto trying to keep quiet of his laughter. “Well, getting back to the subject; you really shouldn't JUST loose your virginity to any guy, it is just so not worth it. So if & when you do have a guy, just don't allow him to rush into anything, hell don't you rush things too. It's just that * Sigh * it's basically something you cannot get back. Hope this was enough info for you.” Asked Kira. “Well, I sort of do. But you know me, I'm picky and a lot of times I just do not have the time to be with a guy.

Call me weird, I guess for me I'm just not ready for that.” Said Dawn feeling a bit like an idiot wondering what she has said made any scene to Kira or not. “I think you will find out for yourself when the timing happen to be just right. “ Said Kira. “So, here are a few guys that are single. * Thinking * there's Tsurento and Makoto; those are the only two that are that are single.” Said Dawn. “Well, I don't know about Tsurento I'm not his type. I don't think I met this Makoto yet. Isn't he on Tausha's team?” asked Kira.

“Ok, * Dawn stands up * Makoto it is then.” Said Dawn. Kira looked up. “Hey, what about Kankuro? Isn't he single? He's not my type, but meh.” Said Kira when she noticed a slight disappointed look on Dawn's face. “Oh, Kankuro is seeing someone I take it then?” Another sigh from Dawn. “He's wasting his time with Danya; I already know that he's the one that is going to be dumped like garbage. While Danya goes running back to Neji, and completely forgetting about Kankuro.

He is a puppet master, that doesn't mean that he should be used like a puppet.” Said Dawn. Kira taken back, now more than happy to know more details about Kankuro. “Oh Dawn.. You like him don't you? That would explain your bitterness to Danya.. opps wrong person Neji.” Said Kira.

Dawn didn't answer back; Kira took it as a YES in her mind. “There's been far too many times that Kankuro wasted his time trying to be there with Danya only to have Neji to step in at the wrong time; I just don't understand why he can take that sort of crap” Dawn stares off the other direction. Kira grabs onto Dawn's arm pulling it to where she can sit back down next to her. “Come on tell me, anything.” Asked Kira. Dawn now sitting back down on the grass.

Makoto over hears the conversation going on, behind him someone was coming up to him. He never even notices until a hand touched his shoulder. “Blah! * Makoto turns around only to see Vince * Vince.. You scared the living shit out of me.” Vince standing in front of him stoic. “If you are interested in one of the girls over there, they won't bite; well maybe Dawn might.” Said Vince. “I cannot just jump in there, they are having a conversation. Besides it would be rude for me to do that.” Said Makoto. Vince over hears part of the conversation.

“Hm, Kankuro must be in for a real treat; that is he leaves the other girl.” Makoto looked at Vince. “In for a treat what do you mean by that? I don't know if Kankuro would leave Danya.” Said Makoto. “Danya pretty much left him to be with Neji; I saw the two earlier today. Kankuro is pretty much pissed off.” Said Vince. “She did? Hey you still didn't say what you meant about how Dawn is a real treat or in one?” Asked Makoto. “No.. Kankuro will be the one in for a real treat. Meaning that when he does start off going out with Dawn, he's going to have to deal with her tiny clothes, and Dawn hates wearing PJ's or whatever going to bed.

She sleeps and also walks around her little place with nothing at all.” Said Vince. Makoto's eyes widen. What about Kira? I mean is she the same way as Dawn?” Vince looked at him with a smirk on his face. “ I think all you have to worry about is when those two get together and trying on clothes to see which fits right. They make their own clothing, but the ones they make the most are the bras.” Makoto's mouth slightly dropped only to close it up. “Wha? Why do they make more bras? Style, or what?” asked Makoto.

“You mean you haven't noticed what size they are & wear?” Makoto wasn't sure what he was getting at but played the part like he did. “Makoto.. * Vince pointing out to the girls * they have huge breasts and they make a lot of bras to hold the weight of them up. Dawn wraps up a bandage while out on missions; Kira does the same thing only difference is that she wears one of her made bras over the bandage.” Makoto in awe in his mind * Boobies *

“I know you are the leader, and they are your team mates. What size are they in; apparently they hide it well.” Said Makoto as he looked back to the girls. Kira is in a med. A size 38D; Dawn would love to get a reduction done. She has the biggest, and struggles with the pain the most. She's in I think a 44 DD. Poor kiddo * Makoto looks back to Vince * she has to go in to a chiropractor nearly every day. The weight it self is causing Dawn's back to hurt.” Said Vince.

Vince shoves Makoto into the open field where both of the girls quickly turned around and saw both Vince & Makoto. Vince nearly forces Makoto to walk with him to the girls. He panics. “Hey.. it's Vince & Makoto! What's up?” asked Dawn Kira noticed Makoto.

Makoto tried as hard as he could not to look at the girls' breasts. Kira looked at Makoto, she loved his hair and eyes.

She stood up and asked Makoto if he can walk with her to the river on the other side of the forest. Leaving both Vince & Dawn shocked. “That was rather quick, something must have sparked her interest in him.” Said Dawn. “Seems like to me that you have someone on your mind but been so dam bitter to even take the chance to and meet the guy.” Said Vince as Dawn turned at him. “What? What do you know?” “Simple, you've been so disgusted at Neji & Danya, it's been killing you more seeing how many times that Danya let him down. I'm no moron to know who you like.” Said Vince. “Why don't you just jump in and see Kankuro?” “Uhh that would make me look like I'm desperate, & that is something I don't do.” Meh * Vince raises both of his arms up half way * suit yourself then see ya.” Said Vince as he began making his way back in to the Sand Village. Dawn sitting by herself, thinking to herself on what to do.

Vince now back in the village, he heads off to Gaara's place. He sees Gaara writing down & studding the scrolls rolled out on a table shaded by the old oak tree. “Gaara, got a minute?” Gaara looked up to see how it was. “Sure, what is it Vince?” Vince sits down on the chair, his arms on the table folded. “First off, have you seen Kankuro?” Gaara nodded and said that he saw him looking rather pissed off. “Well, for one it was wrong for him to even start going out with someone from another village, and seeing that girl for only a few days. Kinda ruined his day.

Why do you ask? Is that girl asking for him; if so ignore her.” Vince shaking his head with a smirk on his face. “Even better than that, there IS a girl, she is from this village * Gaara looks to Vince with more focus * she's been rather pissed off & not happy to see Kankuro with the other girl form the Leaf Village. Only problem is that she's so dam stubborn.” Said Vince. “Hmm, I know who that is. Her brother Jason was talking to me yesterday about Kankuro.

Well, this all seems very clear to me now.” Vince looked at him a bit confused. Gaara lays down his pen and raised one arm up to rest his shin. “Kankuro was asking me about Dawn days before he started going out with Danya. His main concern was that he thought Dawn wasn't his type. So, obviously he did the dumb ass thing of going out with Danya rather than actually asking Dawn out first.” Said Gaara.

“I tried to convince Dawn to go met him but she said that if she did that it would make her look desperate, and that was something she doesn't do.” Gaara nodding. “That's Dawn, Stubborn & it is true what she said. If she did go & meet him, it would seem like she's desperate. Something she's not. I'll device a plan for the two to meet. So far that's four people, well if you count Dawn's twin nephews. “I'll bringing up the subject about Kankuro & Dawn.”

“So, when can we start this?” asked Vince. “Another exam is coming up, Tausha and the rest of you guys are going to this. I'll start it then.” Vince got up form the bench. “Alright, sounds like a plan to me, see you later.” Vince leaving Gaara's place. Tausha finished packing her stuff ready for the exams.

She walks up to Gaara who was already standing up with scrolls all tied back up. “Oh, I am so going to miss you. * Tausha reaches out to Gaara for a warm embrace * I heard you and Vince talking about something, but I was too busy packing. What were you two talking about?” asked Tausha.

“Well, it seems that everyone is playing cupid around here; basically No one here was happy to see Kankuro going with Danya. Not all of them, just a few saying a few things about Danya using Kankuro. I know Danya is your friend, but I didn't like the way in which she was treating Kankuro. Think about it, you don't want to see me doing that to you.” Asked Gaara. “I know you wouldn't do that to me, but yea, I do agree what your saying. Where is this going anyways?”

Gaara kisses Tausha throwing her off her guard. She wraps her arms around him. Gaara slightly pulls away form Tausha. “I got to go find Dawn and have a little chat with her about something. I'll let you in on what's going on when I get back home.” Said Gaara as he made his way into the Forest to the Waterfall Village where Dawn always hung out. “Ugh, I hate it when he does that.” Tausha heads back into the house. Tausha didn't know at the time that Gaara gave her a huge clue in part of the Cupid conversation.

In the forest by the River

Kira & Makoto began talking to one another about their part relationships, leading up to the moment now. “I was wondering Kira, what was it that made you want to walk with you over here?” “I was locked up when I saw you, and was curious to know why I haven't noticed or met you until now.” Makoto taken back by her comment. “I must confess about something I hope you won't get mad at me; I was out by myself, when I heard someone running and sound pretty mad about something.

I thought someone was going after you, only to find out that it was just you and Dawn. Sorry If I overheard your conversation. I was more interested in what was going on and the reason to the point.” To Makoto's surprise Kira wasn't mad at him. “Well, it was a couple weeks that I didn't even take notice that the guy I was once with was cheating on me, so what Dawn was telling me was right.

Now I feel a lot better about it. I'm not stuck like those two other girls that are going to have his baby. Besides, that is his problem, and sure in hell glade it isn't my problem anymore.” Makoto felt sorry for Kira, all the crap she had to endure for nearly a month if not more. The sun was down; starts were out sparkling, yet there was still some light out. Makoto pulled Kira to be sitting close to him, Kira leaned against him.

“Oh feel free to either laugh or tell me your opinion. I'm still thinking back to what I asked Dawn when I mentioned about Kankuro. I'm still amazed at myself that Dawn actually showed interests in someone yet very pissed off when she mentioned that Kankuro was going with Danya. Yet, Dawn knew from the start that is was all not going to work out. To me I really think she wanted to go out with him, but never got the first chance to do so. What do you think?”

Makoto adjusted himself more comfortably while resting his back against the tree. ”I think, now would be the time for the two of them to meet one another, that is really up to them. But yea, if I were Kankuro I would save myself the trouble and go out with Dawn. Besides, Even Tausha noticed Dawn acting very bitter to Neji and Danya. Well, not so much to Danya herself. But I remember Tausha telling me that Dawn was rather pissed off for what Danya did to Kankuro a few times. I don't know if she knew that Dawn liked Kankuro. What a mess just thinking about what Kankuro is going through and Dawn venting even more not being with him. I personally thing that she is more frustrated that she wants to be with him and let him know that she is there. Not like you said, she is stubborn.”

Kira resting her right arm on Makoto's right leg. “By the way, would it be rude of me to tell you my opinion about Vince?” Kira tells him to go a head. “I know he's the leader of your group, but dam.. He literally scared the living shit out of me. The way how he stands, he's tall sure but his eyes pretty much can scold on anyone down.” Kira laughs.

“Yep, Vince tends to get those reaction like yours from a lot of other people. Don't worry, it isn't rude to me or him He's very much use to that all of his life.” Kira felt herself sliding more now nearly laying on his lap, but really wasn't. A shock wave came over Kira when Makoto's hand touched her face. “I've never seen anyone with pink eyes before, nothing wrong with that. I just find them to be rare & exotic.” Kira moves up closer to Makoto's face just to see his eyes more. “I've seen every eye color, they are still the same to me. To me the eyes are a gate way to the person's soul.” Said Kira.

Just before the moment got interesting, an elderly man walked by. “Ah young love, what a nice setting you two are in.” Said the old man. Both Kira & Makoto a bit startled by the old man's presence. Kira got up and sat next to Makoto. “Oh don't worry about me, as you can see I do not have very much in me.” Said the old man. He let one of his two big bags fall to the ground he then took his time sitting on the ground. The old man grabbed the bigger bag placing it on his lap opening it up. “If you two wouldn't mind, I have two of these old but very good condition and high quality materials worn by highly respected people in our village. I would like for you to wear them, for this old man.” Said the old man.

Makoto took the one package, and took the other and passed it to Kira. Still a bit confused why this old guy wanted them to wear it. “May I ask why, and the reason we should dress in this for?” Asked Kira. “My child it would take me a long time for me to start form the beginning. So I'll just cut to the point. My only last dieing wish is to be with some one.. no matter who it was, but someone that can stay with me before the sun rises. You see, those clothing belong to two very good friends of mine ages ago. Once you two changed, I can tell you who they were.” Said the old man.

Kira nodded as she took the package with her behind the huge tree where she changed. There was a note specifying how to wear the outfit & hair. Puzzled, Kira did what the old man wanted. “When ever you are ready child, come out so I can see.” Said the old man. Kira stepped around the tree and walked to both Makoto & the old man. “Mm, now young man, your turn, once your are finished I want you to stand by her.” Said the old man. Moments later Makoto came out and stood next to Kira. The two wore ninja outfit, but this one had some interesting outlook to them. Kira had to take off the bandage wrap before she had to actually fit into the fish netting top, a soft blue and gray vest like shirt barely covered Kira's breasts. Her pants were long with fancy ninja sandals. She wore her hair down. Makoto was wearing all black but with blue trim ninja outfit. He had short sleeves, but he also had two arm cuffs with the symbol of the Water Fall Village. He wore his hair up in a fancy type of hairstyle complete with a long bamboo through his high ponytail, leaving both long strands hanging form his face. The old man was very pleased. “Ah, you two remind me of my long lost friends. You can sit now, and I will tell you about them & why I wanted you two be dressed in this manor.” Said the old man.

The old man goes off about his story for about an hour; he finally tells them the names of the ones he has missed a lot over the long years of his life. “The woman was very well respected, however she and her lover died in combat. The woman's name was Yumishiko, and her lover that stayed by her side his name was Vladimir. They were very strong fighters, however this one battle might have won, but it cost them their lives. The two did have kids. I cannot remember how many nor do I even know if they are alive. But I do miss my best friends, and they were my team mates.” Said the old man leaving both Makoto & Kira shocked.

“We would like to know your name.” Asked Makoto. “My name is Azamiem.” Said the old man. He began to go through his bag where he grabbed a big blanket to place on himself, but he didn't forget about the couple sitting next to him. He hands it over to Makoto. “Take this, it gets rather chilly here at night.” Said Azamiem. Makoto draped the blanket more over on Kira, but she moves closer to him mainly so that she can share the blanket with him.

The man continues on with his life stories and his pasts. As the night past, the sky was starting to brighten up. Azamiem telling the two about loosing his entire family decades ago from a ambush that costs people their lives, while some lived he remained the only last living old man in their village. Kira felt really bad to what happened to Azamiem.

Azamiem was started to slow down, as well as his breathing. “Before I go, do not let anyone know where I am. I have a sacred sutra with me, so if I die; both my body & spirit will move on. There will be nothing else here, other than those gifts you two are wearing. Kira.. come here child I need to ask you a favor.” Said Azamiem. Kira got out of the blanket and went over to the old man sitting in front of him. Azamiem took her hand. “One favor… * breathing slower * when it comes a time when you want to have a baby * Kira taken back a bit * if you even have a son, name him after me… Azamiem.. it means strong leader..” said Azamiem.

Kira told him that she would, and added where she would tell him about what Azamiem was and like during his time. With all of that said. Azamiem made one more statement to the two. “Love is a terrible thing to waste, don't ever deny yourselves over foolish acquisitions. It's the one thing you will live to regret all of your life.. like me..” Said Azamiem, after that last conversation, he was gone.

Makoto noticed that the man was busy finishing his speech that he forgot to place his sacred sutra on him. Makoto picked up Azamiem's hand and placed it on his chest. Kira moved away only to sit right next to Makoto. Soon Azamiem's body began to disappear into the atmosphere.

Makoto and Kira both sat there in silence, until Kira overheard some voices. She stood up and peeked behind the tree only to see a couple around the same age as them. Makoto peeked too to see what was going on. Makoto went to sit back down against the tree, not knowing what was going to happen next. “Meh, we will be seeing them shortly; they are going to the Chuinin exams tomorrow.” Said Makoto. Kira went to move slightly but the heel made her loose her balance. Stumbled a bit only to get agitated and pull the heeled sandals off her feet.

“Such dorks, I don't think they even know what they are doing. Sheesh, enough talk and just move you idiot.” Said Kira leaving Makoto wondering if she was really talking about the couple off the distance or him. He only knew the difference was that he wasn't even speaking yet. “Blah, blah, blah.. GAWD.. move already. They suck!” said Kira Makoto couldn't help but turn back to see what the couple was doing that was driving Kira nuts.

Makoto can slightly make out what the couple was talking about. Makoto slightly shocked only to be replaced with laughter. Hiding his laughter, Kira started to laugh. “You heard that too.. you would think that type of pick up line would have come from Ken.” Said Kira. Makoto turned back to see the couple only to hear Kira frustrated. “Oh eww, well, at least he finally kissed her. But Ack… slobber mouth, blah. I would rate that as a.. hmm 1. “ Said Kira.

“Well, now that the show is over, you can sit now, just watch out for your shoes.” Said Makoto. He threw the big blanket over himself; a breeze passing through began to pick up. “OMG, Azamiem wasn't lying about this area getting chilly. These clothes I'm wearing form him are not helping me much, Bur!” Kira holding onto her arms felling the Goosebumps she rubbed her arms to get some warmth.

Makoto offered her to sit next to him, moving the blanket aside. Kira got in front of him and sat on his lap, telling him that she would be warmer this was than sitting next to him. Makoto not even taking notice just yet as he wrapped the blanket around them. Makoto hissed as Kira's hands touched his arms. “Ah, your hands are like ice Kira.” Said Makoto. It then dawned on him noticing how Kira sat on him. Kira was cold and she was wearing little next to nothing of the outfit. So it made sense why her hands are freezing. He wrapped his arms around Kira; her arms were just as cold as her hands. The wind picked up even more as Kira's hair was blowing every which way. Kira became annoyed from the wind making her hair a mess. She moved slightly as she reached out for her hair to pull as much as she can into her hands, Makoto couldn't help but noticed Kira's vest came undone revealing her cleavage to him. Kira now with a fist full of her long hair held on and moved the blanket to tuck in her hair. Makoto made his move on her. Wrapping his one arm around her waist, and the other hand reaching out to Kira's face. He moved up only to be near her ear and began to whisper. “While you were standing viewing the couple off the distance at fist I thought you were referring those questions to me; but I noted that it wasn't. It became questionable to me when gagged at the sight of the guy for obviously doing a lousy job kissing that girl.” Asked Makoto as he waited for a response from Kira.

Kira was about to speak but was stunned when she felt Makoto's lips along the side of her neckline. He was basically giving her hints of which type of kissing she liked more.
