Shout out to warriorcats2013, Chazie245, dancingprincess622, tighter.

So I am sorry this has tooken longer then the two weeks I usually do, I have had a hard time writing this, but I am also going back at all the early chapters and editing them... especially chapter 8 that is now called A little truth here, okay, maybe a little half-truth. You might want to read it, just the five question part so you don't get messed up later. Also, I know, I know... This chapter says its chapter 38 when it really should be 36. What I did is when I was editing I changed the chapters that were halved (chapters 8 and 33) and maybe them into their own chapters, so that's why.

The priceless moment when you realize that the kitten you have had for five months is not a female... That happened today... To top it off, his currents name is still Cleopatra or Leo till I can find a better one... Either that or It.

So, no one has really guesses where the 'I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts. Du lu du. There they are sitting in a row. Du du du. Big ones. Small ones. Some as big as your head!' Came from so I'm going to give you all a hint... watch this video. ----------------------------------->

... And for those that still don't get it... I don't think you really had a childhood.... or where buried under a rock...

Chapter 38 - Good ways to stay sane, head-butt a tree. (>^.^')>

-------------------

Sensei Note: So we are going to prolong Naruto's training for a day, so this is going to be a day before Naruto finds out what way his chakra spins and two days before he beats the first level, okay?

Let me just say this. Bring a child to the room in the middle of the night is either not the brightest idea, or the best prank ever. I didn't stay in the room the whole night, maybe at around 3 a.m. I slipped back out and did some training, and didn't come back till late morning when I knew everyone would be just waking up, and it turned out that Rin had woken up also during the night, but because she was still so sleepy, she just walked over to where Naruto and Ojisan were and ended up sleeping right up against Ojisan, scaring the wits out of him when he woke up, and because Rin was sleep right next to him, he needed up waking her up and making her start screaming because he scared her. And before all of this Naruto had woken you to go to the washroom and hadn't seen her, so when he got back into the room he freaked because he saw Ojisan and her freaking out. You know what stopped all of this? Rin. She ended up beating the crap out of both go them and by the time I got back she had found some rope and had tided them up. So when I walked into the room I found Naruto and Jiraiya fully tied up on the floor covered in bruises and her standing onto of Ojisan’s back making sure that he was tied tightly. Where she had got the rope I have no friking idea.

"..." That of course was me when I saw what was going on, and then I did the most responsible thing to do... I fell to the floor laughing my ass off. And of course, me laughing made Naruto and Ojisan yell at me, which made me laugh even harder, because they looked so funny. This went on for a little bit before I finally calmed down (an hour later) and untied them. Needless to say, they were pretty pissed at me for laughing... Eh.... It not like they could really beat me up for it... unless Ojisan is really serious, then I would have no chance, but Naruto... pshhhh....

So after I had finally untied them and all, which took another couple of minute to do so. It would have tooken longer if I hadn’t given up on untying it and just sliced through them with a kunia. Let me just say this, Rin is a master knot tier, you should have seen the knots she had tied! And in the short amount of time she had too! Also, needless to say, the moment I untied Naruto, I had to sorta kinda maybe... beat him all most unconscious for charging at Rin.... And then I shook him awake again... ANYWAY!!! After all if that we all finally sat down on the ground, Naruto and Ojisan sitting in front of Rin and I who was sitting on my lap and I was brushing her hair, trying to get rid of all of her knots.

"So... uh... I am guessing you guys are probably wondering how this little girl is... Well, she is your guys little sister and new niece." I told them as I slowly worked on. Ojisan and Naruto were speechless, so I just continued on. "You remember that yesterday before I was really moody and was easily set off. Well, earlier yesterday I walked into a gang beating up a helpless child, and then beat them in return. But the reason why I was still mad was because I didn't know if that kid was all right or not, so I was mostly mad at myself, and that's why I left yesterday, to find that child. After a little bit Rin here walked up to me and we stared to talk after I treated her to dinner and it turned out that she was the one that Kuro was beating up, and that she was also homeless, so I took her in to save her from that loneliness and pain, a pain you should know fairly well Naruto." During that whole thing I kept my gaze on Rin hair as I brushed it, but at the very end I moved it so I was staring right at Naruto.

"So please be kind to her. Guys, this is Rin Kakureta Flor, Rin, this is my younger brother Naruto I told you about and my uncle, Jiraiya. And yes, I am changing my last name to Kakureta Flor as well, which means Hidden Flower." I told them as I set the brush down on the floor now that I had finished brushing her hair and some shine had returned to it. When I was done we all stood up and Rin walked over to Naruto to probably meet him, so I walked over to Ojisan how moved over to the window. Even though he wasn't fully facing me, I could see that he was smirking. I leaned on the window frame beside him.

"What's with the smirk, find something funny about me taking in Rin?" I asked him, making him face me. His smirk was now more of a simple smile now.

"No, not really, just thinking how that is totally like you to do that. Ever since you were little you have seem to have an effect that draws people around you and want to be close to you, and I don’t think that kid is any different." He said before looking over to the now laughing Rin and Naruto. I smiled too. They seemed to be getting along with each other.

"Well then I guess you can say the same thing about Rin, because all I want to be is beside her with Nala to watch over her and give her a real family." I replied. We were both silent for a little bit, listening to Naruto and Rin.

"You do know that changing your last name will pretty much say that your clan no longer exists. Do you really want that to happen" I heard Ojisan say quietly. I sadly nodded.

"Yeah, I do. But I think it's time for change, and for as long as I have known, as much as my name brought me so much pride and happiness, it also made it almost unbearable to live under its crushing weight. Besides, I think this is for the best and I don't think mother, father, Onii-chan, or grandpa would mind. I would like to think that they would be happy for me, and at least I am keeping half of my name, so it's not like I am completely getting rid of my past, I'm just making room for a new future. And also, isn't just having a family better then living up to the clans’ expectations?" Ojisan chuckled again and turned away from me, making me elbow him in the gut. "Hey, what's so funny this time?" He turned to me still chuckling softly as he rubbed his gut.

"Nothing. I just found it funny how ever since you were little you are all ways called the Akai Hana, and now, you have flower in your name, even if it's hidden in a way. Get it, hidden flower!" He started to laugh even more and I puffed up my checks.

"Geez, you don't need to make that much fun at me." I said with my puffed up checks, making him laugh even harder, and making a few little anger ticks appear on my head. Let just say that he didn't last too long after I snapped...

When I was done 'teaching' my uncle to not disrespect people I huffily walked over to Rin and took hold of her hand before walking to the door. "Rin and I are going to town today so don't bother waiting up of us! Have fun training!" I called over my shoulder as we walked out, leaving Naruto and a very black, blue, purple and red Jiraiya behind us.

"Harmon-"

"Onee-chan." I cut Rin off as I closed our door. "We are a family now, and I am your big sister, so it's Onee-chan." I told her.

"Oneeeeeeeeeeeee-chan?" She looked confused as she stretched out the 'e' and looked up at me. I gave her a smile.

"Yeeeeeeeeees?" I said back, copying her, and making her laugh.

"Where are we going?" She asked me. In replied I held up my simple leather wallet.

"Shopping!" I said with a very chipper face.... Before I realized I had a chipper face one and I just said shopping... And I didn't have shopping for weapons on my mind. Internally I started to tear at my head. 'AHHHHHH!!!! I'M TURING INTO SAKURA, INO, AND NALA!!!!! SOMEONE SAVE ME!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!' I don't know why but I suddenly found myself at Suteki's place. You know, the place with the waterfall, pond, sakura tree, and the very flowery smell in the air at most would think that it would calm a person down, not that that stopped me from freaking out. No, not even close. Because my mind knew that no one could really see this besides Ms. Crazy, I began running like crazy and yelling at the top of my lungs.

"I HAVE FINALLY GONE INSANE! I WANTED TO GO SHOPPING! AND I WAS HAPPY ABOUT IT!!! AHHHHHHH!!!" I yelled as I ran around and ended up at the tree, bashing my head into its trunk numerous times. "HELP *bonk* ME *bonk* RID *bonk* THESE *bonk* AWFUL *bonk* THOUGHTS!!!!!......*bonk*" I guess you could tell what I was doing.... I was hitting my head on the tree's trunk with every word.

"What in the hell are you doing?" A student bored voice asked me from behind. I stopped my 'therapy' and looked at her.

"What does it look like? I'm head-butting this tree to stay sane." I said to her, making her give me a mocking look.

 "Really. So just mentioning shopping makes your mind slip a little... Damn why didn't I think of that before?" She said before snapping her finger in a 'darn' kind of why, making me quite bonking my head and look at her with one eyebrow raised.

"Okay then. Pycho lady that is close to 200 years old up looks like she's thirty but really acts like a twelve year old. Didn't see that coming." I said to myself before returning my head to the tree but this time only resting my head against it, feeling it slightly pulsate from me hitting it.

"Hey! I do not act like a twelve year old! She complained, making me laugh.

"And yet you are the one yelling at taking offence to it...." I told her before I closed my eyes and tried to calm myself down. I kind of realized a while ago, whenever I go to talk with Suteki like this, which is not offend, I completely zone out the outside world... So right now I am probably just standing in the middle of the road freaking Rin out. I took a couple of deep breaths before I opened my eyes again and as rewarded with the sight of a very confused/scared look that is close to just plain freaking out Rin in front of me. I gave her a closed eye smile when I say her.

"Yo." I said with a peace sign. The moment I did this, the confused a scared look vanished from her face and now she was just freaking out.

"YO? IS THAT REALLY ALL YOU ARE GOING TO SAY AFTER STANDING IN ONE SPOT, NOT MOVING, NOT BLINKING, NOT EVEN BREATHUING FOR FIVE WHOLE MINUTES?! I TRIED EVERYTHING TO SNAP YOU OUT OF IT." Rin yelled, shocking me a little, then I noticed I was a tade wet, so she must have also splashed me with water. I had never would have pegged Rin for the passionate yelling type... But then again, my best friend Rin was also like that, quite, shy, really nice, and then yelling at the top of her lungs if I did something to scare her and if we were alone... Seeing my sister Rin act in a similar why made me laugh and place a hand don her head, ruffling up the hair I just brushed.

"Sorry, sorry. That sometimes happened to me, so don't get too scared, I'm just off in my own little world, and I don't pay attention to what goes on. They don't happen offend, so it's nothing to worry about." I said as I squatted down a little to be level with her and wipe a stray tear. "Okay, my pequeña flor? I promise you I will never let you feel the pain that you have felt from being alone." Rin gave me a smile before wrapping her arms around my neck. I couldn't help but smile before I pushed her away slightly and stood up again and placed my arm in top of her head.

"So, shall we finally get going? We are going to have a busy day shopping a head of us." I asked her as she tried to shove my arm off her head.

"Ughh! Get off!" She cried when she couldn't get my arm off, but I simply kept it there. Yes, I am evil, so what.

---------------- A couple hours later-------------

"Oh, this one is nice, try it on!"

"No, I hate pink."

"How about this one?"

"No."

"What about this one?! It's soooo cute!"

"NEVER HAPPENNING!"

"Why?!" Rin yelled as she help up a green dress, which looked surprisingly uncanny to a certain red dress that I had worn before. Just the sight of it made my eye twitch.

"It's a dress." I crossed my arms in front if my chest

"What's wrong with dresses?" Rin asked as she set it down on the growing 'rejection' pile that was now starting to resemble a small mountain. 

"Simple, they are the work of the devil. The last time I wore one I was forced into it and because of it some guy started to hit on me." I said simply as I walked over to the clothes rack and looked though them, looking for some more clothes for Rin, not me. See, what I had meant by shopping before was getting some clothes and a haircut for Rin, and now that Rin had some every shiny soft hair that ended had way down her back in a solid line and now had some neatly cut bangs and reached the tops of her eyes with two longer pieces on each side of her face, we then started on the clothes. And for some deranged reason, Rin got it in her head that I needed some new clothes too... And sadly, she was a lot like Sakura and Ino when it came to picking out my clothes. She did pretty good when it came to picking out her own, seeing as she was now wearing a simple yellow dress that is tied in the back and had a very nice pair of sandals on.

 When Rin heard about that her eyes started to sparkle. Yes, she was also a gossip queen like Sakura and Ino as well.

"Really?! What was his name?! Did you like him?! Did you two start going out?!" I gave her weird look.

"Do you even know what 'going out' is?" I asked slowly, making Rin shrug.

"Uhh... Not really.... But that doesn’t matter! Tell me! Tell me!!" She said as she jumped up and down, making me sweat drop.

"Fine, fine, I'll tell you as long as you stop trying to get me to try stuff on." Rin nodded her head really fast.

"Deal! Now TELL ME!!!" She was now in the ground holding onto my leg for dear life as she yelled the last part, making me shake the said leg very rapidly, but let’s just say that this little seven year old had a very good grip. After a couple of minutes of trying to shake her off, I gave up and sat down on the bench that was close by.

"Fine, I give. His name was Kotori Maiagaru, and yes, I guess you could say I like him, at first, AS A FRIEND. But now I couldn't care less about that cocky bastard.... And don't you dare ever repeat the last word I just said." Rin finally let go of my leg and sat down beside me.

"Why?" I sighed and took off my goggles so I could run a hand though my hair.

"Simple, he tried to get close to me in a short amount of time and then played me. It was all most two weeks ago and it was an extremly important day for Naruto and a few others because it was a day to see if they would be able to have the right to be called a chunin and show their strength, so of course I wanted to go watch and cheer them all on. I ended up running into him, literally. After that we began chatting before we got to go and see Naruto's fight. I guess you could say that I thought he would be a nice guy at the time, but he completely changed my prospective of him when a little bit later he attacked my village with the help of another village, fought me, tried to convince me to run away with him or something, and then tried to kill me when I refused. Well, I guess I should say tried to kill me when I refused and tried to kill him at the same time, unfortunately, I am 99% sure that he is still alive..."

'Which surprise me, you weren't exactly sane then after he brunt your flute to ashes, and he sure was one bloody mess.' Suteki butted in.

'You and I both know he is only alive because of that stupid rat Kabuto. If I hadn't stopped I would have gone though what I said I was going to do.' I replied before I set my goggles onto the bench. "But oh well... Nothing I can do about it unless I run into him again... And beat the crap out of him.... Don't repeat that either." I told her before I stood up and began folding and placing clothes back onto their hangers that where in the 'rejection' pile... And my eye twitching again when I was the dress Rin had just picked out, and at all the dress (Around twenty-ish). As I slowly walked my way through the store putting the clothes away, I finally thought that we had reach then spot where we would stop talking about my not-to pleasant past. I was placing a shirt away on the rack when Rin walked up to me.

"Harmony?" She said, signally she wanted to ask me something, making me sigh inwardly.

"Yes Rin?" I asked back, not even looking at her.

"Why are you covering some marking you have on your arm?" She asked suddenly, making me jump and without thinking look down at my right arm. I noticed that I no longer had a bandage over it and the tattoo was in plain view for everyone to see. I didn't even remember taking it off.

"When-" I stumble over my words as I tried to figure out when it got reveled.

"I took it off when you were staring off into space because it looked really dirty and I thought you were hurt so I was going to ask if you wanted it to be changed, but I saw that your arm was fine so I left it like that. I hope you don't mind..." Rin said with a sheepish glace at my arm and face. I sighed at looked down at my arm as I rolled my sleeve up a little bit more to look at it.

"No, it's all right. Just don't tell Naruto or Ojisan about this mark, okay?" I asked as I rummaged though my weapon pouch and pulled out a roll of bandage cloth and began re-wrapping my arm with it.

"Uh? Why?" That was all Rin said as I put the roll away. I gave her a wink and placed a finger to my lips.

"Because if you keep it quite then it can be our little secret. A secret no one else knows about. Sound like fun?" Rin broke out in a huge smile and nodded her head. 

"Uh-Huh!!" She said while she nodded.

"Awesome. Remember you can't tell anyone. Now let’s go and shop for some more stuff." I told her as we began walking out of the clothing store and out onto the street. The moment we were outside Rin started to swing her arm back and forth and kept on singing the word secret over and over again, but would stop the moment someone would walk by, making sure none of them heard her. I smile warmly at the back of her head.
