It was werid. I just sat there listening to Suki. She was obviously venting some stress, so I for the most part remained silent. Her rants were kind of funny actually. Suki didn't even notice when Maki finally came.

"You like Kyu-kun," I said reading her last rant rather dimly.

"Of course I do Hachi you should know that...oh sorry," Suki said laughing a bit.

"Hachi," Maki said quietly.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"Nothing....it's just I'm glad that...you're back to at least a bit normality," Maki laughed. She started over to Kyuubi and moved things around to make him more comfortable.

"You silly Kyu," Maki said just enough for me to hear, "you have a sister that you are worring and three friend who are tired of seing you hurt yourself. You need to find your answer."

Maki did a few healing jutsus over some of the scratches on Kyuubi. I hadn't even noticed them before. This was kind of weird....
