I yipped excitedly against the fogged glass of the window seven floors above the ground at Konaha High school. The cheering coming from the disfigured view of the soccer field only made my tail wag faster in excitement. This was one of those times where I wished I could be a human; rooting my Sasuke on the sidelines like everyone else, but I still get to be by side almost every hour of my life as his faithful pet fox. Every girl on the planet could wish they could eat,sleep, and bathe with him. He's such a good master though, so I'm not complaining.
Today is our anniversary; today is the same day we met almost 13 years ago. Doc saved me from the streets....er woods and gave me over to 4 year old Sasuke. Apparently, Sasu wasn't doing too well sociably either, but I guess that was a given when I first peeked into his room. He was in a corner by himself, and the room itself was dark and dreary. I remember looking up at Doc with my big blue eyes as he pushed me into the room. I crept in and nudged the young boy's arm with my wet nose. He looked down startled and that's when our eyes met. I swear it was love at first sight... but anyways, back to the current situation.
I lept off the window sill and lang soundlessly on the groun on all fours. My ears perk up as I hear some oddly familiar waterlogged footsteps coming closer to the classroom. I plant myself for my attack right outside the door.
"Naru." Sasu opens the door,soaked from head to toe. "What are you-" I launch myself in his arms without letting him talk anymore. His black jersey felt nice against my furry cheek and his deep chuckle resonated very nicely in my ears and soul. "Jeez what am I gonna do with you." I wiggled around in his arms comfortably while placing myself with my white striped stomach sticking up in the air. Sasu cradled me like any human would with their child.
"Let's get home, we are going to be late..." He gave me a very nice tummy rub, scratching in those nice sensitive places. You see why I absolutely love him with all my heart? He is really nice and gentle. With me close in his arms we surface back outside in the deserted hallway, looking left in right for those scary fan girls. We even had to take several detours to avoid them, so it took a little while to get outisde in the parking lot.
I could see the headlights of the limo and I could see aniki's head from the window which was open despite the rain. Sasu tucked me in closer and sprinted to the door. "I heard you won your game, Otouto. Well done." Ita-ani didn't look up from his laptop as his finger flew across the keyboard. Sasuke placed me on the seat and clicked in his seatbelt. "You shouldn't bring Naru everywhere. He just might get the incentive to run away." Sasuke made a face and threw his bag on the floor. His shook his wet hair like a dog and made sure he got ani's laptop wet. That's my Sasu.
"Oh yeah? Kisame doesn't need to get out of the house either." He raised a dark eyebrow toward the mini shark stuck in the rather large fish tank sitting next to ani on the leather car seat. A big speaker was taped to the side while hundreds of rainbow colored wires were attached to the tank and the shark itself. I jumped to the other side and sniffed the tank. Hiya Kisa-chan, how are you? He comes to meet me at the end of the tank and waves his fin at me. He actually decides to act smart with me.
"Hello....how...are..you...." Sasu snatched me from the speaker where the crude monotone voice continued. "Good...game...yes?" Ita-ani pat the tank while Kisame grinned his many rows of teeth. Sasu stared at ani like he was frankenstien's master.
"That isn't normal... at all." Sasu shook his head side to side. "Animals aren't supposed to talk, especially fish." I wonder what would happen if I wanted to be able to talk? My tail drooped at the thought of Sasu's possible rejection. What if I always listened to what he had to say? What if I promised to get in his way. I just want to be with him, but does he like it better as it is? Even if he said something completely pointless, I would still listen.
"Otouto," Ita-ani obviously disagrees. "I'm sure even Naru has alot of things to say, even though it might not be positive. I know it might be degrading on my part... perhaps if you let me..."
Sasu and I growl at the same time; totally in sync. First off, I wouldn't bad mouth him not in a millioin years. Second, I would give anything to talk to him, but I won't have some bionic voice that doesn't express feeling like Kisa-chan's.
"If anything, I'd rather have Naru human."
"Ha. Sorry to burst your bubble, but I don't think Dad could even do that, the genius that he is."He glanced outside and wiped the foggy glass with his sleeve. The Uchiha Mansion showed up in front of us. "Speaking of Dad..."
The door opened and Kakashi stuck his head inside. "Welcome home you two." His one eye winked. "I see you brought your pet to school, Sasuke, but I guess its just a bad habit." he said. He opened the door wider and led us to the door. Several maids bowed in reverence and relieved Sasu and Ani from their things except myself and Kisame.
"Well, at least Naru's normal." Sasu muttered. "Naru and I are going to take a bath. Father, bring my dinner upstairs."
"Why don't you eat with us?" Kakashi called from below as I followed Sasu up the stairs. "It would be nice..."
"No thank you. Why would I want to eat with my psychotic brother and his bionic fish and then there's you. Well... you're just queer. Later family."
I took a glance at Doc and there was a smile on his face. I swore he shared a secret glance with Ani. Oh if I only knew what they were planning. Maybe I could have been more prepared for... oh well. All wells and ends well... that's the saying right?
