OOC: WEEE! i still have a half hour. i though it would take longer for me to get ready. ^^'
"Ow." Hatsumi looked at Sasuke. "Maybe if she tried harder, she'd be better." Temari nodded and then set off. "I'll come with you." Hinata said, taking Naruto's hand and going outside.
OOC: T-T gtg i've got a softball game. see ya guys tomorrow
"How about 'how to take care of a baby'?" Hinata suggested. "At this point, anyone will do. You're the Kazekage, you make the descision." Temari said, landing near Gaara. Hatsumi rubbed her head. "What? It's true."
"Come back....." Garxena begged. "Come back...."
Temari sighed. "If we spend anymore time looking by ourselves, we'll just be wasting time. We've got to get help." Michiko looked at Sasuke. "I still can't do it as well at Hatsumi...." Rukia stood and went over to Michiko. "You both move at different paces. You'll get it when you're ready." Hatsumi nodded. "I'm just better than you." "Not helping..." Michiko muttered. Hinata smiled. "There's more authors than just him. I'm sure you can find something."
"You're real to me." Garxena argued. "It doesn't matter what you are... I'm a Nobody, I shouldn't even feel this way!" She shut her eyes against more tears.
"Do you remember anything about where they took you?" Temari asked Gaara. "I meant an educational book from the library." Hinata said. Hatsumi grabbed Michiko and hauled her over near the lake. "Go on." Michiko looked back at Rukia and Sasuke nervously. I'm gonna mess up... She thought, but made the hand signs anyway. Now that Hatsumi had put her there, she may as well do it. Immitating Hatsumi's movements she tried the jutsu. She got a small ball of fire that lasted only a few seconds before disappearing.
"I don't care!" Garxena cried. "Nothing matters if you're gone!" She shook from crying.
OOC: XD Hinata put her shirt back on. "Maybe a book could teach you properly." Michiko shook her head meekly. After seeing Hatsumi's progress, she knew she'd look dumb if she tried. "That was so cool!" Hatsumi grinned. "Come on, Michiko, try it." Michiko shook her head again. "Focus!" Temari yelled down at Gaara. "Where could they have gone...?" She asked herself aloud.
"No..." Garxena shook her head, tears falling from her eyes. "I'd rather have to live with him than have you both gone..."
OOC: :inlove: aw! that's so sweet! BIC: "They're gone...." Temari murmured. Could that guy know a transportation jutsu?! Michiko tried again. "I got it!" She grinned. Rukia smiled. "Good job." Hatsumi focused her chakra and then tried the jutsu. She got a fair-sized ball of fire that lasted a few moments but then burnt out. Hinata's cheeks turned bright red.
OOC: heaven on earth? Lol ^^ BIC: Hinata squeaked and pulled back. "Feeding babies." Temari scanned the area, not needing to focus on her jutsu too much to stay aloft. "I don't see them." She shouted to Gaara. Hatsumi kept going faster. "This isn't too hard." Michiko watched Rukia do it once more and then tried again.
OOC: :luv: BIC: Hinata blushed. "Ino-chan says that they're meant for two things." Temari gave Gaara a worried look and then took off after Kakuzu without a word. Hatsumi repeated the hand signs, going a bit faster each time. Rukia showed the hand signs to Michiko slowly, letting Michiko copy her as she went. "That's it. Now you do it." Michiko tried on her own and messed up a couple times.
OOC: as long as you don't suffocate =^^= BIC: Hinata moved away from Naruto. "Don't hurt yourself." She smiled. When the smoke cleared, Kakuzu and Satoshi were gone. Temari looked around. He can't have gotten far. Hatsumi tried immitating the hand signs. "Like this?" Michiko just watched.
"Anyone would do that." Daine bit her lip. "I... I thought I'd lost you..."
Hatsumi's eyes sparkled. "Teach me!" Michiko stayed back with Rukia. "I can't do that..." "It just takes practice." Rukia said. Temari saw the look on Gaara's face. He's back to his old self... This could get ugly... Kakuzu disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Hinata blushed. "I'm sure he's just as good as any nindog."
"I- I couldn't help. You almost died and I couldnt' do anything." Daine fought back tears.
