Hatsune Miku blinked, surprised to hear the question answered. She looked up to both, surprise on her face before shrugging. "I don't think that's true. They probably miss all three of us right now. After all, they did say that the three of us 'Keet things interesting.' They're probably all sitting around bored." Half empty, half full, just there. That seemed to be the thoughts of the group. At least, to Miku it's how she saw it. She saw the dog come in through the window and looked to it as it started barking. It took a moment to register, but Miku gasped when she realized what was at Haku's feet. She stabbed the tiramisu and shoved practically the whole thing into her nouth at once since she had only had a few fork fulls of it before the puppy from earlier came back. She quickly chased it was the rest of her tea before jumping out of the booth and grabbing her bag. After a moment of shuffling, she grabbed more than enough money to pay for the meal and tossed it onto the table before flinging the bag over her back and grabbing the guitar she had been carrying around with her since her arrival to the academy. She went over to where the dog had come in and waited to be shown where to go.

"Ow, ow, owww." Ryukosay said as he regained control of his body and he was able to move again. "Oi, James you still alive!" Ryukosay said looking around with normal eyes. 'Great finding him would be easy but I used most of my chakra in that sparring match.' Ryukosay thought as he got up and starting looking around the forest for James.

Kyo grabbed the jacket again and he ran towards the balcony, he jumped the railing and landed on some tree branhes then he kept going down, landing on the branches. He quickly looked for James' scent he found it and he followed it, then he found his master laying on the ground bleeding from the cuts he had gotten earlier. Kyo dropped the Jacket and dashed toward his master stopping beside him and licking his face.
James felt his pup's tongue lick his cheek he slowly sat against the tree and he laid there. In pain, but with someone at his side. And he saw Miku, he smiled a bit and he laid there trying to clean his wounds.

Miku waved to her friends (wether this was a good bye kind of wave or a "come with me wave could be interpretted by the two how ever they felt so) before turning and taking after Kyo. She surprisingly kept up pretty good, despite the fact tat she was running in leather boots with platforms on the bottom that gave her at least an extra inch in height going up to her thighs with both a book bag and her black guitar with a teal out-line and hot pink five-point stars on the neck attached to her back. Once they got to the spot, she quickly whipped te guitar around so it was hanging on her front. She looked around, on alert, before spotting James and running over to him When she spok, she had a sort of high pitched-computerized sounding voice. Maybe the way she sounded would help explain to James part of why Haku didn't like to talk, even if Miku had no shame in her odd mechanical sounding voice. "What happened to you? Why are you hurt?" Her voice would occasionaly crack in odd places, which helped to the slightly false voice she was speaking in, so it would be a wonder if her didn't think she was probably a robot of some sort, despite her being perfectly human.(( +222))

James turned his head and spit some blood out, then his eyes turned to a dim red and he looked at Miku. He had activated his sharingan with the little of chakra he had left.
"You're no robot" he said and he smiled."Well, we were sparring and we got a bit carried away"
James slowly and painfully got up and he rested all his weight on the tree's trunk. James slowly looked a Miku. He blushed a bit, "Did Kyo bring you here?" he asked her

What he said had confused Miku. "You're no robot." Of course she wasn't! "Of course I am not," she replied in that same high-pitched and computerized voice, complete with a blank and confused look on her face as she blinked several times. She then grinned and got into a pose. "I am Hatsune Miku from the group Vocaloids. We live in Hidden Night. Although, something happened to most of us, so now we sound different, but people still like our music. We're famous." Was it needed for her to say so much about herself and her friends? Probably not. After all, being recognized at the moment was probably the last thing Haku or Neru wanted right now, but Miku could have a big mouth some times. Although, she would prove that she wasn't lieing by beginning to sing Ave Maria. Despite the odd voice, she still had a beautiful singing voice, and it was even better when she sang with her friends. Actually, she preferred singing with her friends than alone, but she was alone so she'd prove so alone. Maybe James would believe her and want to be her friend since he knew she wasn't a robot.(( +198))

James heard her beautiful voice, his sharingan deactivated and he sat against the tree. He took his jacket and he cleaned his wounds slowly and steadily. He looked at her and he sighed happily.
"What a beautiful voice you have" he said. He grabbed some bandages and he placed them over his wounds.
"My name is James Uchiha, from Hidden Leaf, and this is Kyo, he's a silver wolf" he said at Miku, he looked at the guitar and back at her
"What guitar do you have?" he asked softly

Miku smiled and bowwed her head when she finished. "Thank you. Every one in Vocaloids has a great voice. But some are more shy about their voice than others." This being the excuse as to why Haku had refused to speak earlier, and hopefully the way for him to understand why Haku might not speak around him for a while longer. She clapped her hands together and bowwed once more when he introduced himself, smiling and tilting her head to the side at his introduction. "It is nice to meet you, James and Kyo. of Hidden Leaf" She looked down at her guitar before looking up to him and grinning widely. "A black one with a teal outline on the base and hot pink stars on the neck that I used in the video for Yukkuri Shiteitte Ne." If he couldn't figure it out, then that was her way of saying she had no clue. If any one had to guess, it was an electric guitar of some sort, but there was no way she'd carry around an amp just to properly use the instrament she planned to use as a weapon any ways.(( +194)) ((I can't find a pic, and I have no clue, so you'll see it better in this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0k7ERlE96PA&feature=related ))

James smiled and he took deep breaths. He looked at Miku and he remembered Haku, she was very shy, but she must be a singer like Miku. He looked at the stars and he gave a howl and so did Kyo. He laughed and he looked at Miku.
"Hey Miku, why dont you come and see the stars with us over here?" he asked her smiling, knowing he found a friend.

Hatune Miku was taken by surprise when he started howling, but she smiled and laughed lightly along with him at how Kyo had copied him. When he offered for her to come over, she smiled and nodded before walking overto where he was at and began taking the guitar and bag off. She dropped both onto the ground and sat next to him, her knees bent and pulled close to herself and her hand reclined back in a comfortable position that proped her up, all while avoiding sitting on her pigtails. After all, it would not be fun to sit on her pigtails. She looked up and smiled cheerfully. "The stars look so pretty tonight~! I wonder if Sensei is still waiting for me at the feild... I should probably try to tell him I finished my training." She shrugged lightly before continuing looking up at the stars. "How far are you in your training?"(( +155))

James looked at Miku.
"Well, Im done training, but I'm waiting on my friend, Ryu to finish" he said and he looked at the crescent moon. He petted Kyo who had laid on his lap and had fallen asleep. James smiled looking at the wolf pup he had adopted and remembered how little he was when he found him. James slowly & unconsciously laid his head on Miku's shoulder and he reacted by moving back and getting confortable again, he was sort of passing out this time.

Sakazuki returned the handshake, at first taken aback by Katsu’s eagerness before she smiled, returning it with equal enthusiasm. However, without a word, her grip suddenly tightened slightly, almost as if she wished to subtly assess Katsu’s strength… After all, there was a connection that she wished to get to the bottom of… And perhaps a slight display of strength might do such? Of course, she would’ve never attempted this if she were still wounded, but since Etheldreda had healed her, she felt that she had little to fear at the moment.
===

Taking note of the nod, Shuku sent a brief glance upwards towards Katsu and Sakazuki to make sure the peace was kept between the two before she got to making the cowgirl’s plate, making just enough so that it wouldn’t overflow before she handed it off to Mei. “Try not to make a mess… Either way, we’ll probably try to go get a bath later,” she added quietly. After all, the Circe had done it the other night, so there had to be a river within the area somewhere. Then, she got to making her own plate.
===

Airi blinked at Alice’s response, particularly at the mention of dandelions. While of course, she knew of a few that did eat them, they weren’t necessarily something that would’ve been declared as ‘fine dining’ or even so much as a ‘snack’ in the eyes of the maid… Still, when a grocery store was not present, she supposed that it would work. “I meant more along the lines of vegetables… Maybe even a mild incorporation of herbs… Maybe meats and cheese if you have that too,” she added, hoping to put a more pleasant insight on what she would’ve called a ‘salad’.
===

The Imohtep gave a slight nod. Even if Melona didn’t know it on a professional level, if she could teach her the basics, that would be enough to sate her… So long as they didn’t end up talking about gas again… Or something along the likes of Menace being humiliated and groped in front of the entire student body… That mental snapshot would be in the mind of many a teenage boy whenever they went off to do unmentionable things. She looked back towards Melona then. “I’ll be ready to begin whenever you are, then.”
===

The pulse went through Echidna’s entire body before she froze, as if stunned by the gesture. While the paralyzing effect was rather week, the fact that Echidna was seemingly in a surprised daze would by Honehime a few precious moments before the swordswoman blinked, returning to the matter at hand. Soon, her grip shifted slightly, weakly, the woman attempting to regain movement, evidently willing to even force her unwilling form to move.
===

Neru gave a sigh as Haku gave her usual depressing response. It was disheartening, but then again, when it was Haku, it was not unexpected. Soon however, her attention fell upon the dog and soon enough, Miku was rushing off after it. “…b***h forgot to tip,” she muttered throwing a few extra dollars, her last few dollars onto the table before she shoved her tiramisu into her mouth as well, looking to Haku briefly. “Come on, let’s go after her,” She whispered as a wry smile of sorts spread across her face. “After all, if she’s following that dog, then it means that idiot will be there…” It seemed that despite Haku’s protest, Neru had not entirely forgotten about her plan to maul the face of the Uchiha upon their next meeting.
===

As V-13 stated her suspicions, Pan couldn’t help, but let out an electronic snort. “The odds of such an operation occurring are quite slim,” she replied in an almost haughty tone. Deep down however, her processors confirmed that if such a conspiracy were taking place it certainly would mean trouble, not just for their outpost, but those situated elsewhere as well. After all, if one could infiltrate this system, it could do so to others as well. It would certainly something that she would need to bring up when she held her next meeting with whoever was in charge here.
===

Shouko followed along quietly as she clutched her pack to her like an eager explorer in a new land. With her belly full and hopes revitalized, the Akimichi had little reason to frown at the moment as they went on their way. In fact, a mild skip would’ve been seen in her step, making her form shake with every sudden motion, though she didn’t seem to mind. However, sure enough, the desire to sleep was slowly drilling its way into her mind.

 Honehime felt Echidna shudder to a stop, as her technique had actually managed to work. She knew it wouldn't last very long, however, Echidna was too strong to be taken out of a fight so easily. She had to make the most of this narrow opportunity while she still could. Squirming wildly against Echidna's momentarily unresponsive grip, she was finally able to wriggle at least most of the way free. Even then, before she had fully escaped, she noticed Echidna was already moving again. She was taken aback by just how soon her teacher was breaking free from the paralysis. Even as a temporary measure, it should have lasted a little longer than that. She feared she had greatly underestimated her teacher. Nonetheless, she still struggled to get those last few feet to safety before her teacher could trap and wrap her up once again. (27090 words + 147 words = 27237 words)  Lieselotte remained on guard, even if she wasn't actually guarding the camp. In the first sweep, she had found no sign of anyone threatening to attack. That meant that either there was no one waiting to attack, unlikely as that was, or that they were just very skilled at hiding their presence. A much more likely prospect. She knew better than to burn herself out by being hyper alert the entire time, however. If she did that, it would mean that the unseen enemy would only have to wait until she wore herself out. Then they would be able to attack that much easier. No, she'd remain alert, but not to that brain-wracking paranoid level that would overtake all else. She could still eat, sleep and so on, and still keep her guard up. And Elfriede could help, too. After all, she didn't necessarily need to sleep, and she didn't eat. So she could make an excellent guard, even if Lieselotte wasn't able to support her. (23395 words + 172 words = 23567 words)   Katsu continued shaking Sakazuki's hand. She noticed the increase in grip strength of this person she felt drawn to, but didn't squeeze any tighter herself. The grip wasn't painful, although it might have been to a normal human. And she knew better than to try to match it, if she wasn't careful, she could just as easily shatter Sakazuki's hand as hold it. So instead she acted like she hadn't even noticed the difference, still just normally shaking her hand. At the same time, Mei was watching hungrily as Shuku fixed her a plate of food. When she was admonished to be careful not to make a mess, she nodded solemnly. And then, at the promise of a bath, she smiled brightly. Bath! She wondered if she had remembered to pack her rubber ducky? She held her plate carefully as she moved to find a good place to sit down and enjoy her meal, wondering if Shuku might sit next to her. (29981 words + 168 words = 30149 words)  Zenia had finally reached the edge of the forest. She paused for a moment, mentally preparing herself for what, if done correctly, would be a horribly boring test of patience. After all, she might very well have to watch them for days on end, only getting the bare minimum of sleep when there was a chance to grab a few moments' rest. She was ready for it, though. So she strode into the forest, moving slower than before, more stealthily. she was still likely hundreds of yards away from her targets, but that was no excuse to get sloppy. She wasn't about to risk detection, even if it meant taking several hours to reach them. She moved slowly, seemingly only moving when the wind rose, it's sound masking any slight noise her footsteps might make. She paused each time there was a sound, and sometimes when there wasn't. She had obviously done this before, and was very good at it. (10018 words + 163 words = 10181 words)  Melona didn't immediately reply to Menace when told they could begin whenever. she was busy trying to gather the various tidbits of knowledge she had gleaned from her time here, as well as deciding on where a good spot to attempt to teach the Princess might be. Sure, the hallway they were standing in seemed abandoned, but there was no guarantee it would stay that way for long. No, she would definitely prefer to be out of the public eye for this. Both so they could concentrate on the actual training, as well as another, more perverted note. After all, if they went somewhere to train in private, they would be behind closed doors... She let a slight smile come to her face, before pointing to a nearby classroom. No sounds came from it, so it would very likely be just as empty as all the rest. "Very well, your Highness, let's go in there so we don't get bothered by the riffraff." (12588 words + 166 words = 12754 words)  Alice thought about what Airi said. Making a salad with vegetables, and herbs, meats and cheeses? That actually sounded like real food, rather than the varied assortment of stuff she would have chosen. After all, a big part of how she had eaten before was if she could catch it, and if it looked edible. She likely had a cast iron stomach to have avoided getting sick frequently from such a diet. As a result, her appreciation of real food had grown a great deal, however. So at Airi's words, her eyes lit up, and she nodded eagerly. "Yeah, that sounds much better! Let's do it!" She was eager to learn, both to see how a real salad was supposed to taste, and also because it actually sounded fun, taking cooking lessons. It probably wouldn't have been nearly as fun with a different cooking instructor, though. (12988 words + 149 words = 13137 words)  Haku watched in confusion as Miku abruptly left, rushing out the door after the young man's canine companion. She was just about to ask Neru what that was all about when Neru seemed to get swept up in the moment, wolfing down the remainder of her dessert, adding a couple of dollars to the table as a tip, and telling Haku to hurry up as well. She nodded, broken out of her depression by the sheer surprise of what was happening, and tried to finish her dessert quickly, too. A moment later, she got up, taken one last sheepish look around, sure that their hasty departure would attract more attention. Luckily they wouldn't be staying long enough to find out. She followed Neru to the door, after adding a little bit to the tip. She probably didn't have to, but since both of her friends had put some money down, she felt she should, too. As she followed Neru, she wondered if her young friend was still planning on trying to pick a fight with the young man, or if she was just running Miku down to scold her for running off so abruptly. (8465 words + 197 words = 8662 words)  V-13 nodded in response to Pan's statement. Yes, the chances of such happening were extremely small, even less probable than getting struck by lightning and winning the lottery on the same day. But yet, the facts seemed to indicate that there was no other even passably logical source of the anomaly. "Permission to speak frankly, sir?" Before waiting for permission, V-13 pressed on, wanting to say what she needed to say, even if it meant getting disciplined later for speaking out of turn. "Yes, it may be a statistical impossibility. But then again, is not this unit's performance also a virtual impossibility? With all of the programming and gear this unit possesses, much higher performance should be assured. As well, if by chance this is an outside force's operation, we should exercise extreme caution in how we report it to our superiors. If they find out we suspect anything, they would very likely go to ground. From there, they might never be caught." She stopped there, knowing she had said what she had needed to say. She waited to see what Pan might respond with, if she might agree or disagree with V-13's assessment. It was worth considering, at the very least. But it could be that her own judgment was flawed, like so many other of her systems. (9399 words + 226 words = 9625 words)  Etheldreda continued to ponder the mystery of the connection between Sakazuki and Katsu. For a brief moment, she hovered around the two of them, inspecting them both from various angles. They didn't look too similar, but there were some similarities. Just enough that, if you were looking for it, you would notice them. And she was, and did. But why? If Sakazuki hadn't been cloned or anything, then how else could this have happened? A rip in the dimensions, pulling a Sakazuki analogue from another universe? Unlikely, but possible. She would have felt it if it had happened, though, even in her Grimoire form. To rip through the dimensional barriers took a great deal of energy and magical talent, and wasn't something that could be done lightly, or by accident. And speaking of energy and magical talent, she felt herself running still lower, there wouldn't be much time left in the merging. She hovered back to Sakazuki's shoulder, whispering such into her ear. (4128 words + 168 words = 4296 words)  Shouko's happy mood seemed to spread to Dizzy, she found herself relaxing a little more, and actually enjoying the brief walk through the woods. Well, it was either catching some of Shouko's good mood, or the general feeling of happiness after eating a good meal. She wasn't sure which it was. Regardless, she was feeling good, and energetic. The air was just barely warm, the trees lent them shade and their were the numerous sounds that combined to perform nature's symphony, everything seemed just about perfect. She felt confident that she was on the right path, and a moment later her belief was proven correct. A distance ahead, the exact distance unknown due to the trees blocking much of it's sight, the crown of the big tree could be seen, extending several dozen yards above the forest's ceiling. She paused as she gazed upon it, once again wondering just how long it had been around, how old it had to be to get so big. (4075 words + 171 words = 4245 words)

Tsuni was almost jumping as she skipped to the entrance of the door. Alright Tsuni, calm down and focus. You are here at this academy to be one HECK OF A NINJA! Taking deep breaths, she entered to the academy and glanced around. This seems awkward... she thought, now feeling a bit shy and timid. Besides, Tsuni didn't know anybody, so what now for her? Tsuni shuffled her feet a bit, wondering if she should wait or go to one of the adults, who were the teachers, if she should show them her stuff. She took a deep breath, and heard someone say, "Excuse me, young lady?"
Tsuni looked up to see a young jounin, older than her, but pretty young looking for their age, sitting near a desk, smiling casually at her. It was a boy jounin, and he seemed...well...pretty cute. A small smile tweaked her face as she nearly skipped towards the jounin. "Are you Takana Tsuni?" the boy asked. "Yeah, that's me!" Tsuni exclaimed, making a cute smile towards the young jounin."So are you ready to show me your stuff?" he asked."Yes I am!" Tsuni exclaimed, but went silent, not wanting to cause any attention.The jounin laughed. "Why don't you start with your bunshin no jutsu?" he questioned."Hai sensei," she replied, starting to form a hand seal.
Alright Tsuni...focus... Tsuni thought, doing the handseals to make the bunshin no jutsu. Time to show my stuff. She closed her eyes and whispered out, "Bunshin no jutsu." Two puffs of smoke appeared beside her, and there was two exact copies of Tsuni, right beside her. They were doing the same handseal just as she was doing. Yes, yes, I did it! They're perfect! she thought. Tsuni almost squealed, but she kept the excitment inside. The young looking jounin stared at Tsuni, impressed. He smiled warmly at her. "That was great Tsuni!" The jounin exclaimed. "At your first try, you made two pretty clones of yourselves!" A wink from the jounin caused Tsuni to flush. "Can you do another one?" Tsuni made more hand seals and the third bunshin appeared, who looked exactly liked her. "That was awesome Tsuni!" the jounin exclaimed. "Uh, um...thank you sensei," Tsuni whispered out.

Miku hadn't been paying attention all that much, but the feel of some one's head on her shoulder made her blush as she looked down to see James had laid his head on er shoulder. This confused and flustered Miku a little as she blushed lightly, thankful for the night that hid the light crimson on her cheeks. When he corrected himself with out her telling him to, she calmed down and her cheeks went back to their normal color. She looked to James and tilted her head to the side, pronouncing Ryu's name in a bit of an odd fashion (then again, her way of saying puppy was odd as well, so it would be expected at this point). "Ree-you? He is a good friend of yours? You are both from the same village?"(( +135))
