New Nara in town

"Wha-" Toshi was surprised by his speed. "Eh?!" She didn't know he was that fast. She grinned, and started to run faster, though she wasn't as fast as he was.

The Nara reached the Tower and slumped down leaning on the red brick " I ...won... yata" his breathing was ragged and his heart was beating insanely fast

Toshi reached the building about ten minutes after him. She bent her back, breathing heavily too. "Gah...you...win..."

" you know if you never said anything i would have settled to tie " he smirked

"Ngah..." Toshi sat down cross-legged, panting. "You led me on! I thought I could win!" She sighed after she gained enough breath, and got up. Toshi smiled, and planted a sweet kiss on his nose. "Congrats on winning!"

" you gave me a proper incentive " Kaji chuckled " I told you Raiden is on my team, Dad really doesnt care what we do so Raiden basically trains me, and I can almost beat him to when he's not using this sword " Kaji said sighing. " plus I have longer legs I'd call you chibi but i know you dont like it "

"That's 'cos I'm not a Chibi!" she huffed. And she had the scars to prove it. "Come on, let's go up." Toshi locked her fingers with his and pulled him to the top of the building.

" Hai Hai I know Toshi chan" Kaji said walking with her. once they reached the top Kaji took in the view " looks nice "

"Yup! I'm not a Konoha nin, but I still like looking at the faces," she said dreamily. "Tsunade...the first female Hokage."

" Hai but the 4th is the only one not connected to the others " he said " Tsunade is also a medic . . . i know you'll be better than her though, she has a bad bedside manner or so the others tell me"

"Who cares how one acts, if that person is good? She still protected the village with her life... and I'm still an amateur medic nin," she said, sighing. "Where else do you wanna go after this?"

" I dont know your the tour guide Toshi Ill go where ever you want " kaji said taking another look at the village

"Oh, okay then. We'll go to the KIA memorial." Toshi smiled, and took his hand. "Maybe you'll find someone you know there."

" Ok lead on Toshi chan " the nara said walking down the side of the building "Hey Toshi you said you met Raiden Sempai already, did he find a woman like my mother ordered Kaji asked " cause if he did the world could end any day now"

Toshi nodded, a bit stiffly. "He...he has Miru-san, and I guess they're in love," Toshi muttered. "I'm being replaced again."

" Raiden got a girlfriend before me " Kaji almost had tears in his eyes "this is Kami's divine justice for making me perfect " he paused
"Hey I could love you easy, your cute, you have good goals, you have a decent head on your shoulders and my family likes you " he started rhyming off all the lovable things about her as the walked through the village.

Toshi blushed, hard. "I'm not sure if I'm good enough for you, Kaji... Aiden says I am a good wife-in-training, but... I'm a stupid, annoying Chibi brat."

" I dont know anything about this Aiden guy but he sounds kinda dumb. . . I say your smart in your own right and I can say this because my I.Q. is over 200 and clearly your not a chibi brat " Kaji beamed

"...still, I think Raiden-san was telling the truth when he said I was a brat," she mumbled. Toshi hugged his arm as they walked, hiding her face. "Hmph... That's why I won't get married when I grow up..."

"Man im sure that was just the Slug talking . . . It does that sometimes, Man if raiden ruined my chances with you im going to strangle him " he said " hey Toshi chan has anyone ever tell you you look really cute when you blush "

"Nh...no..." She nuzzled her face against his arm, trying to get her blush to die down. "...are you just using me because you want a girlfriend, but you haven't met any better girls yet?"

" eh... let me answer everything you just asked "
"Im not using you "
"I have met other girls but none pass my tests, a) they want to train without me asking, b) they look good and have good goals and c) my mom likes them or they and they dont run away when she starts talking about her job" he finished
"oh and I like you so since im here for a few weeks we could go on some dates and I can see If you could love me as much as I love you I guess " kaji said a little unsure how she would take his answer.

Toshi blushed tomato red, and looked down. "Um...well...I just met you...shouldn't we get to know each other more, and not jump to conclusions? And even if you say you love me, how do I know you will stay loyal to me?" The last question she asked, she looked up at him with both fear and hope in her eyes.

" Thus the purpose of the dates to get to know each other plus im a Nara and we have been known to fall hard for bossier and scarier woman then you, take my mom or Shika's dad plus I think If Raiden gets promoted he will be Mists rep for Leaf relations and then He can take me on as his apprentice thus Id have to stay here and once I get used to this village my little problem might go away" Kaji said as they reached the Memorial Stone.

"Well, since Raiden-san's going to take a lot of Miru-san's time, I guess I have nothing to do but play and watch clouds," she said, sighing. "My goal in life is to serve a worthy Danna. What about you? And what little problem are you talking about?"
