Isubara walked by a big tree, picking up a large rock from the ground. It was cold, like the day, and the moss covering it was slightly damp. Her long slender fingers moved slowly about the moss, trying to keep a good grip on the rock, the last thing she wanted was to drop it on her foot. As emotional, though people said she couldn't be, as she had been lately something as small as dropping the rock on her foot would most likely result in tears. Especially considering where she was, and her reason for being here.
Here...The grave of her mother and Chi Chi...Chi Chi.
She she stepped closer to the graves, carrying the rock along. This rock was going to be her sitting place while she stayed here. She had always used it...Chi Chi picked it out when they began hanging out, and would visit Isubara's mother's grave. And now...Not it was no longer known to Isubara as her mother's grave. It was now Chi Chi's grave as well.
The rock made a loud thump as it hit the ground a little ways away from the grave. She never got too close to the graves. Never. If she got too close her emotions would get the best of her and she would picture them all too well. And on a day like today...that was not what she needed. Chi Chi always made her go up to her mother's grave and lay flowers down...But now there was no one there to make her get close and lay flowers down.
Her eyes slowly moved to some trees with a small patch of flowers under them. Those were the flowers Chi Chi would make her pick the flowers from....
She looked at the rock that she had not yet sat on and sighed. She slowly walked closer to the flowers, her feet going as slow as they could, as though getting too close might burn them. She reached the flowers though, and it seemed as though it took forever to reach them.
She bent down and fingered a small yellow flower. Her mother loved yellow...Her eyes darted to a bigger pink one...Chi Chi's favorite color. A small smile came to her face and she picked them, standing strait and looking to the graves. Maybe Chi Chi wasn't standing there urging her on...but still, she felt as though she were somehow still urging her on.
She stepped towards the graves, finding it easier to walk, and her feet moving a little faster.
Her eyes swelled with tears, and her face stung as tears rolled down her cold face. A small wind blew and her long pink hair flowed back. Her stomach churned, not with sadness, but with eagerness, she wanted to get closer.
She reached the graves and dropped to her knees. She knew it would happen. Clear pictures and memories came to her, so fast and all at once, as though a flood came out of no where and filled her with thousands of drops of, what was not sadness, but happiness.
She reached forward, moving her hand over the grave. Her smile wide. This was the closest she had been to Chi Chi in years...
Four Years... She thought, as though she were talking to Chi Chi. "Too long my dear Chi Chi..." She uttered to the stone in front of her. "Too long..."

"Hey you,are you alright over there?"Taki yelled as she started walking towards her.She knew the girl was sad because of where she was and all,she just wanted to make sure for some reason.
"Hey whats your name?,Im Taki."Taki said not giving her enough time to answer the first question.Taki didnt even know why she even asked that because she is so closed up inside and doesnt really care about the outside world.....or should you perfer other people.

Isubara jumped as the girl spoke. She opened her mouth to answer her, but closed it due to the girl speaking again. She whiped the tears from her eyes and stood. She was a good bit taller than the girl, and was today in her jonin vest. She didn't know this girl...she quickly put on her emotionless face and voice. She spoke, looking the girl in the eyes, seemingly not giving the graves another thought, her tears dried up already.
"Taki? I haven't heard of you before." She said coldly, though she was being kind to her. "Haruno Isubara. Thats my name." She said in the same voice. Nothing was in her voice, it was flat, but the tone was beautiful. "What is your Clan, child?" She asked putting a hand on her hip.
The soft wind blew again, her hair flowing once more. She put her right hand up and situated her glasses. She wasn't nervous of this girl, even though she had never seen her. She knew she was of this village, she could just tell.
Her eyes darted quickly to the graves, though they stayed there not long at all. "I am fine...by the way.." She stated, refering to the girl's, Taki's, first question.

Taki looked her straight in the eyes and said,"Im from the Inuzuka clan.I am the one and only Taki Inuzuka."Taki knew she had nothing to worry about but still spoke with a certain tone like she was hiding something from Isubara even though she had nothing to hide.
"Im not surprised you have never heard of me before though."She said a little more calm than before."Inai come hear girl,"She called before she wondered off again."well Im glad your Ok...."Taki stopped right in the middle of the sentence and thought of her accident with her sensei a while back.
Taki started to turn a white color as the flash back got clearer and clearer in her mind.

Isubara watched as the young girl called, what she now knew to be her dog, seeing as she was Inuzuka. Then she heard her begin to speak again, and stop. Isubara studied the girl as she became pasty looking. She stood there for a second, waiting to see if the girl would be ok, and she seemed to be seeing something that was growing clearer by the minute.
She walked up to the girl calmly and smacked her across the face on her right cheek. "Wake up!!" She called loudly. She was unsure whether or not it was a genjutsu she she put a little chakra behind the slap to knock any un wanted genjutsu away. Her hand stung from hitting the girl so hard. She thought maybe she had hit too hard.
I hope she does start crying or anything liek that! Isubara thought angrily as she waited to see if it helped the girl.

Taki came back from the flashback with a hard slap across the face and stepped back a little."Ouch what was that for,that hurt."Taki said holding her cheek as she plopped on the ground to let Inai see she was ok. Inai looked at Taki and jumped on her lap to lick her cheek.

Isubara sneered at her. "Heh, surely you can take it, you are a ninja, right?" She asked, a mocking tone to her voice. "Anyways, sorry. You seemed sickly thinking about something. I had to snap you out of it." She said simply.
She flicked her long hair over her shoulder. And put a hand on her hip. "Sorry, though." She said walked up to her and giving her dog a pet. She looked at the girl's face, taking it in her hand. "You'll live." She said flatly. She looked over to the dog again. "So," She started. "Whats his name?" She asked, actually sounding interested in the dog.
Isubara had always liked dogs, and this one was very cute. She couldn't help but like it.

Isubara nodded. "I see..." She said, so quietly it was almost a whisper. "A she...of course.." She mummbled to herself. She tucked a loose strandof hair behind her ear and petted the dog again.
Isubara had always been good at spotting people's inner most emotions, and sensed Taki getting in a bad mood. "So...What brings you here, child?" She asked in a soft, emotionless voice. She was trying to be kinder, but somehow her voice was always flat and dead. There seemed to be nothing she could do about it.
And she didn't really care what the girl was doing here, she just didn't know what to say to her. And she didn't want the girl to think she was mean or anything. She wasn't mean...just...Blunt. That was a good way of putting it. Blunt.
She smiled blankly at the dog, giving her a rub behind the ears.

"well I was just taking Inai out for a walk and we ended up right here why?"Taki said getting up off the ground.She really wanted to be left alone 'cause she was aggravated. As Taki stood up she said,"You know I'm not going to lie.....I am in a bad mood right know so I'm just going to go before I pop......or just stop talking for a while."Taki said turning to walk away.
She didnt mean to say that like that but she was pretty annoyed.And at least she was telling the truth.

Isubara felt her eyes twitch as the girl spoke. "You know I'm not going to lie.....I am in a bad mood right know so I'm just going to go before I pop......or just stop talking for a while." Does she know who I am?! Isubara thought angrily. Maybe this girl needed refreshing of it. And she spoke, her voice cold, and dead, and filled with anger that anyone would have though could kill, just by them hearing it. "Let me tell you something." She wasn't shouting, or yelling, but you could tell by her voice that she was angry. "I have worked my butt off, and killed, and slaved, just to make sure all you whiny little kids could have a future doing something you loved. Ever think that maybe I may be in a bad mood? Well let me tell you," She was going on, seemingly without breathing. "I am standing here on the ground that my mother and my dear friend lay under!" Her voice raised at this sentence, but it was still not a yell. "I don't want to hear you talking about being in a bad mood. If it is worse that the hardship I have went through, then we may talk. But I, an ANBU, who have been trained to kill, and have done so my whole life, don't want to hear any of it, until you can say you have went through worse than I!" Her eyes were strong, sad, and angry all at the same time. Her voice trimbled slightly at the end, but the last note to leave her mouth was strong and sharp.
A soft wind blew again, shifting her hair. She had been through so much...And she had lived, and dealt with death, and killed many people...for what? Children like this brat? She was ashamed someone like this child came from her village. It was...discusting.

"Sorry and excuse me your the one who chose to become a ninja ,An Anbu ninja.and what do you expect every thing to be fine and dandy.i dont think there is anyone who has a life being a ninja that nothing is wrong."Taki siad almost yelling at Isubara.Her eyes started to turn red and tears started to water.She started to think about her family and sensei.
She went to start again except in a lower voice,"And look I am sorry about your mother and your friend but mostly every ninja is missing a dear friend or a family member. So yea its not just you its either that or you hurt someone that you dont mean to."Tears started to roll down her cheeks and she turned and told inai to come and she walked over to a shadey spot and sat down.
