Konoha High :::7:::

~Kisa's POV~

Kisa shivered as another roar of thunder sounded. More tears fell from her eyes as light filled the dark room, soon fading back into the darkness. She whimpered, slightly wishing her brother would help her. Maybe if I call Emi... No... she's probably busy. She screamed as another roar of thunder passed through. Thank god I'm in my dad's room. For once I'm thankful for soundproof walls... Kisa took in a few deep breaths, her eyes still closed and tears pouring from them.

~Emi's POV~

Emi looked down at the tiger worridly. "Well we gotta find her!" The tiger nodded in agreement.

"What are you talking about?"Sakura asked, a little to angrily. Emi motioned for them to follow her and jumped down the stairs two at a time. She stopped in front of the guys and they all turned towards her.

"Listen you guys... and girls... Kisa is deathly afraid of thunder. I'll tell you the story about her fear later but... we gotta find her!" Emi stated bodly, boucing from foot to foot. The kids nodded and Haru stepped out of the maid's closet he was in, now in a shirt. "Check in every closet and under every bed!"

"But there's so many!" A blonde boy whined. Emi glared at him but was suddenly captivated by his eyes. She blushed and looked away quickly, her heart skipping beats.

"Hmm... Oh well. If Kisa's your friend then you better do this! If you don't help I'll tell her ad she'll never cook her special ramen for you guys!" Emi grinned, glancing over at the bowls that sat on the table. The blonde boy just stared at her, wide-eyed and disbelieving.

"Uhm... I'm gonna start looking for Killer Punk now..." Blondie said lowly, walking up the stairs. The others departed, leaving only Emi and a brown haired boy with red fang-looking marks under his russet brown eyes.

"By the way... I'm Emi. You're Kiba Inuzuka right? You sit in front of me in class." Emi smiled.

"Yep," he said simply, turning and walking towards the master bedroom. Hpph! Fine then! Emi thought, stomping up to the second floor and walking into Kisa's secret clothes closet.

~Kiba's POV~
I was really rude to that Emi girl. Kiba thought and shrugged. Oh well. He smirked and walked into the master bedroom, collapsing on the king sized, crimson bed. Thunder sounded loudly outside and he groaned, rolling over onto his stomach. He heard a light whimper and sat up quickly, looking around. "Um... Kisa?" He asked, crawling on the ground and looking under the bed. A pair of vibrant, almost glowing, blue eyes looked at him, suprised. She had been crying and Kiba could tell by the visible tear streaks on her face. "Come on out..." He smiled gently and Kisa shook her head.

"No." She simply stated.

"Fine... If you don't come out I'll come and get you..." He grinned and crawled under the bed, only to get hit in the face by a random shoe.
"What the crap?!"

"Don't! Just leave me alone!" Kisa cried, burrying her face in her hands.

"Kisa," Kiba said gently, his voice lite velvet, "C'mon out. You're safe with me," He reassured her, smiling gently.

Kiba crawled out from under the bed, still looking at her. "Come on," he smiled and Kisa meekly climbed out. As soon as she got all the out thunder crashed and she lunged at Kiba, grabbing his shirt and burrying her face in it. Kiba blushed furiously but pushed the nervousness away, grinning lightly. "See... Nothing will happen when you're with me," he smiled and Kisa looked up at him, tears pooling in her eyes.

Kisa looked back down, leaning against him slightly. "Thank you," she whispered, making his heart skip a beat.

"Uh... um... No problem..." Kiba replied, the blush deepening. Before he knew it, Kisa was sound asleep, still latching onto his shirt. He picked her up bridal style and walked out of the room, her head against his shoulder.

"She was in there?" Emi asked, looking at him from above. He nodded and started up the stairs, towards Kisa's room. "You're blushing Kiba-kun," Emi grinned, poking him on the cheek as he walked passed her.
That only made his blush deepen.

"No I'm not... She's just heavy." He growled.

"I resent that!" Kisa spat, only dreaming but speaking at the perfect time.

"Don't worry Kiba-kun. She talks in her sleep!" Emi grinned, making Kiba scoff.

"Good... cause I don't want her getting the wrong idea of me carrying her." He growled.

"Awh... You know you like her Kiba-kun. You are blushing just from carrying her so it must be obvious!" Emi teased, walking behind him.

"I said she was heavy!" Kiba argued.

"Sure, sure, whatever you say!" Emi teased further, a lilt in her voice that only made Kiba growl again as he opened Kisa's door. Everyone suddenly popped out of the rooms they were searching in and piled into Kisa's room ahead of Kiba. By the time he walked in they were all sitting down as if nothing happened. He was about to lay Kisa on her bed but thunder growled again and Kisa whimpered, tightening her grip on Kiba's shirt. Kiba, not wanting to be mean to the sleeping scaredy-cat, sat down of the couch, Kisa on his lap and the blush deepening on his cheeks.

~Emi's POV~

Emi sat down next to Kiba, who had Kisa on his lap, and grinned wildly. She saw Naruto glance at her and looked away quickly, blushing furiously. "Ha! Who's the one blushing now?" Kiba whispered.

"Oh shut up!" Emi growled.

"Can't make me! You like Naruto! Admit it!

"I could make you if you put Kisa down and no I don't!"

"Liar!"

"I am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"Am not!"

"Shut up!" Sakura finally yelled, still in her bathing suit. Emi noticed that Kisa was also in her bathing suit and began to laugh at Kiba, who glared at her. In a few seconds Emi was rolling around on the ground, laughing her ass off.

"Who're you again?" Shikamaru asked... or that's who Emi thought it was.

"I'm Emi Umiari!" Emi grinned widely, jumping off the ground and striking the peace sign pose.

"Oh cool! You mean like the chocolate bar?" Naruto blurted, making Emi blush.

"No you idiot! Like that band from the North! Right Emi?!" Ino grinned, victory ringing in her voice.

"Nopers!" Emi laughed, making Ino turn to 'stone' and fall to the ground. (Me: Haha Ino! Haha!) "The chocolate bar Naruto's thinking about is called Yemi Kumiari! And the band Ino is thinking about is the Kimmy Clones which have no relation to my name!" Emi laughed loudly.

"Well... I-" Sakura began but Emi cut her off.

"I know who you guys are! I'm in your homeroom! Sakura, Hinata, Ino, Tenten, Neji, Shikamaru, Shino, Rock Lee, Choji, Sasuke, Naruto, Kiba, and Sai... who isn't here today!" Emi grinned at all the bewildered expressions everyone was giving her and sat back down, pulling the red silk rope as she did so. A large plasma television popped out of the wall and began showing the Konoha Collage Football team members. Haru suddenly stood up and smiled at everyone.

"You can all take a shower now... I'll get your clothes ready. Um... Dog boy... I'll take my sister and you can shower also." Haru turned the television off and smiled his regular homo smile. (Brother: *hits*) (Me: *cries*)

"No..." Kiba growled protectively, glaring at Haru and tightening his grip on Kisa. Something wasn't right about this dude... and Kiba knew it.
