Book Smarts...

Since Kyuubi's off on a mission to get something in Akatsuki and D. Kyuubi is pretty much taking a break for now, since he's going to die anyway... It's pretty much Deiara and Taro for now.

Taro-

Huh... To think I'd run into a Azuki clan member. This was one thing I wasn't expecting, but do to their reputation of weaponary and fighting skills, both our clans were powerful. But I really had nothing to complain about it. I had some blood and I was pretty calm.

However, the odd thing was I started to take a walk and she started to follow me. I senced she was following me and whenever I'd turn, she'd be up hiding in a tree. Why is she following me? This is odd...

Everytime I stopped to take a rest, she stopped. I thought after a while, she'd leave, but she didn't. So why was she following?

Deiara-

It didn't seem like Jess and I had anything to do. We walked around but the bad news was something that never crossed my mind. "Crap, I have school tomorrow. What are they going to think when they see me with ears and nine tails un," I said.

"What about me? I'm a *hic* giant tanuki," Jess said.

"You're so big you'd destroy the building, but you can call in sick, just get Tsunade to vouch for you un."

"Couldn't you *hic* do the same thing?" she questioned.

"Yes, but I don't want to soil my perfect attendence. If I stay in school throughout the year, I get a prize at the end of school un."

"Oh, so you're going to *hic* school with fox ears and tails?"

"I suppose so."
