Chapter 11: Friends

Kyla Pov:

After asking countless people where the Hyuga compound, I finally found it, but then I had one issue, I didn't know which one was Neji's home, he might not even be home, it's a Tuesday afternoon he could be on a mission, he is a ninja after all. I walked around aimlessly getting a few odd lucks off the clansmen, it isn't unexpected, I obviously don't fit in here, I'm not a Hyuga.

I saw a girl, about Sasuke's age, she had short hair and an nervous look on her face. "Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you, but do you know where I can find Neji Hyuga?" I asked a polity as possible.

"Neji-nii?" she muttered, wait Neji has a sister?

"Um, h-he l-lives i-in t-that h-house" she stuttered pointing towards a building and I bowed towards her in thanks, before going off to find Neji. I reached the front door which I think was the one the girl pointed too, I brought my fist up to his door and gently knocked. The person who opened the door wasn't Neji, but a girl, this girl had long blonde curly hair with shining cyan eyes, she didn't say anything she just stared at me before hugging me tightly. 

(Shiori Sorano ^^)

"Kyla" she muttered and I realised who she was "Shiori" I squealed a little as I hugged her back tightly. "We missed you so much, Neji told me you were back but I didn't believe it because I hadn't seen you!" she let me go and grasp my hands. "Look at how much you've grown! You look beautiful! And definitely more female in the areas if you get what I mean" she continued excitedly making me blush a deep crimson. "You're one to talk, Look at you you're like a goddess!" she then pulled me inside to where a red-ginger haired boy sat on a table and Neji lay on the sofa, throwing a ball in the air and catching it again.

"Nico..." I muttered staring at his grown up form.

(Nico Yakamaro ^^) 

He looked at me and smiled lightly before also muttering my name in his much changed voice. I ran over to him and threw my arms around him and he caught me. "You've all changed so much" I muttered into his neck and he chuckled at me. "You've sure grown up too, I could feel your chakra when you walked into the compound" Neji stated sitting up. 

"you!" I yelled pointing at him and he just looked at me "next time you tell me to go somewhere, tell me where it is, I had to ask this girl who called you brother, I had no idea you had a sister" I ranted making Shiori laugh at me. "Hinata? Shes not my sister, she just calls me that" he muttered missing the point completely. 

"Kyla, you know what today is~" Shiori sang and I had absolutely no idea.

"Uh, Tuesday?" I asked curiously getting a raised eyebrow from her so I thought about it for a second.

"Oh my, that's right its Tuesday" I stated a bit more enthusiastically realising today is our day to hang out from when we were kids.

"Do you know whats happening tonight?" Nico asked and i shuck my head no. 

"The autumn festival is on, we're going to go, so dress pretty! We're going out" Shiori explained before adding on "One of us will pick you up at 5pm" I nodded before leaving to get something to wear, and hear I thought I was coming over to spar.

When father said dress pretty as a kid, it meant kimono, I assume now is no different. I decided to look through my wardrobe for a suitable autumn outfit. I browsed through at least 15 and they were all black or white or any colour but autumn. I collected my purse from my bedside and grabbed my key's out the bowl by the door before venturing out to find one. Luckily for me I found one from the first shop and I had shoes that would match. The time was 4 pm so I had an hour to get ready.

The outfit I chose was more of a dress than a kimono but I liked it so I chose it. After getting changed I added some light makeup on, just some lipstick and mascara and then the time was 4:30, I had half an hour to kill so I went into the living room and picked u my book 'how a ninja should die' and continued to read it.

"So, where you going all dolled up?" Sensei asked, why is it nobody wants to speak till I begin reading. "I'm going to the festival with some friends from when I was in the academy" I explained before thinking of something.

"Fukka-sensei, I'm betrothed to Neji Hyuga, am I still to marry him now my clan is... no more?" I asked not looking up from my book, yet he had my full attention. "It depends how the contract was done, I suppose you're better off asking the Hyuga head considering I wasn't there when the contract" he explained and I nodded in understanding before continuing to read my book. 

It wasn't long before the door knocked and I attached my kunai pouch to my thigh under my  dress, I then opened the door to come face to face with  Neji who was neatly dressed in a black suit with his hair down, he looked stunning. "woah" we both muttered at the same time making us look away flustered.

"You ready to go?" he asked and offered me his arm and I nodded as I took it, saying goodbye to Fukka-sensei.

"Hey, so I don't know if you know anything about it, but do you know how we're betrothed, are we still?" I asked avoiding eye contact. 

"As far as I'm aware we are, as you used to say, anything for the clan right? It is our destiny" 

"Does anything for the clan still apply when there is no clan?" I wondered aloud, causing him to stop.

"The Uchiha's may be dead but 3 remain, and from that the clan can be reborn, the history is still there and so is the compound, the clan isn't truly gone till all is forgotten and nobody remains" he explained and I looked down nodding slightly.

"Neji... Where is the compound? I would like to go tomorrow" I muttered as we edged closer to the festival.

"I'll take you tomorrow, meet me at the park at 1 pm?" He asked and I nodded in agreement.

The festival was beautiful, there were lanterns hanging off every stool corner and games and food everywhere, out the corner of my eye I saw Neji smiling down at me and I looked back up at him with a gleaming smile, we looked at several stools, not really doing anything but browsing until we saw a kunai throwing game, a kid was trying to win a soft elephant teddy, so I payed the man and flicked all three kunai at three targets in one hand gesture, this landed in the dead centre each time and the man passed me the toy after clapping, I gave the toy to this kid who smiled brightly before running off to this younger child, who couldn't have been older than 4, he gave it them and received a hug, I quietly watched the scene happily. "That was nice" Neji muttered into my ear from behind me and I nodded a little before we went off to get food.

We got some grilled squid on a stick and sat on the grass next to a lake as we watched the stars, we soon heard giggling behind us as Shiori and Nico sat with us as the fireworks began to go off. "Hey, so are you three all on a ninja team?" I asked not taking my eyes off the sky.

"No, our Neji here, is teamed up with Rock Lee and Tenten under Gai-sensei, Nico and I are on a team with Himaru Kinato under Hana-Sensei" Shiori explained. I've heard that name Gai before.

"Wait Gai as in the Guy who lost to Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki a few days ago?" I asked making them look at me in surprise.

"Yes, he lost to Kisame, well kind of, they left as Naruto wasn't here" Neji stated.

Naruto Pov:

"come on granny-tsunade, Sasuke is this way!" I yelled dragging her towards Sasuke's hospital room. When we got there he was still under the genjutsu which the mean lady Sasuke and his brother spoke too. Tsunade hovered her hand over his forehead and a green light was released, she sighed and put her hand down. 

"He appears to be in a super strong genjutsu called tsukuyomi, the caster, that girl you mentioned, she needs to undo it, or it will take me around a month to do it" she explained before leaving to heal Kakashi-sensei.

I hopelessly looked up at pervy-sensei, I have no idea where to find that girl.

"Do you know your history kid?" Sensei asked and I looked at him clueless, he sighed before saying "the Uchiha clan were all killed but a girl and her brother, and the other brother killed them, If a girl with the sharingan did this, you're looking for her, her name is Kyla Uchiha, and shes Sasuke's big sister, she wore the leaf headband so she's a leaf shinobi and I saw her with Neji Hyuga earlier today, so you might want to ask him about her location"
