Another story
-_- Too bored for words! This one's called 'Clouds'

I sit here, gazing at my white ceiling. My short story, RAIN, printed and ready, sits beside me. Three and a half pages of writing.

I can still remember everything from back then. The laughs, the tears, the annoying.

My thoughts drift back to way-back-when. The sky was a bright blue, with a ton of clouds in the sky. I was outside the school with one of my best friends Mary. We were sitting on a blue bench at a blue picnic table. We were sitting there idly, not bothering to run around like everyone else at the after school program. I think it was May or June, the last months of school.

I was looking up at the clouds, and Mary was sitting there, pondering on something. She seemed to do a lot of that.

We had been silent for a few moments, when I broke the silence. “It looks like a pig.” I said abruptly.

It was so random, Mary had to laugh. “What is?” she asked, perking up.

I pointed at a cloud. “It looks like a pig.” I said, smiling. “That cloud.”

Mary looked up to where I was pointing. “It looks like Kenney.” She said, grinning. Kenney was the boy she liked.

I smiled. “Exactly.”

We laughed for a few moments, then Mary pointed up again. “That one looks like Kenney too!”

“Nah! It’s a cow.” I argued.

After a few rounds of “What’s it look like’. Mary and I were silenced again.

Mary was the first one to speak up. “I’m gonna miss you.” She said quietly, fiddling with a piece of grass.

I nodded a little. “Ditto.”

…………………………………………………..

I wipe away a few tears. I don’t know why that memory hit me. Maybe it was because Mary and I were talking about it last night.

I glance outside. The clouds covered the sky, not leaving a hint of blue. I can’t make them out from each other. I sigh.

I want to make them out, though. But nowadays I never seem to spend anytime gazing idly at clouds, since my new school doesn’t have recess.

So I gaze outside the window again, where its silent, but not silent. Do you know what I mean?

This place is never quiet.
This place is almost always cloudily when I look outside
This place is nerve-racking.
This place isn’t my home.

Someday, I’ll go back home. Forever, though. Not some weekend visit once a month. Someday I’ll go home and spend my idle hours staring at the sky with Mary, maybe even Gina or Mini-me. I’ll just point to the sky, say what I see, and they’d disagree and reply, laughing.

Because clouds calm your mind, and help you relax.

I wonder if anyone else is awake, staring at the clouds and thinking of me.

A story from awhile ago............
RAIN
By KioChibi

A story about being alone, with nobody but the little raindrops to keep you company.

…………...………………........................

I can’t help but linger here on the top step of the stairwell, writing. The only noises are the soft pitter-patter of the raindrops on the roof of the school. I really hope no one will catch me here, even though its recess and I have nothing better to do but sneak away and sit on the stairwell, wondering what will happen next.

There goes another crack of thunder. The rain pours down harder, almost attacking the school roof. It then softens, and soon you almost can’t hear it. It feels peaceful here, the rain, the silence.

Another crack of thunder breaks, and I jump with a yelp. I look up at the ceiling, and I swear, I could almost feel the raindrops pricking my skin, the wonderful feeling you get every time you go dancing in the rain. Don’t you love that feeling?

Two girls, Katie and Leanne, race up the stairway. I’m not surprised, because they always help the heath teacher during recess. Katie, the girl with long, light brown hair and coffee eyes, reaches the top of the stairs first, and dashes up the second stairway, then runs into the double doors that lead to the hallway. Leanne, a blond-haired girl who usually has a ponytail with blue eyes runs after her, yelling that Katie had stolen her shoe.

I giggle, and wonder on how random that was. I’m usually like that

So here I am, alone again, with nothing but the little raindrops to keep me company. It feels nice, the silence, and the gentle rain.

Katie comes back again. “What’s wrong?” she asked. “You seem a little lonely.” She plopped on the stairway, putting her sandals on. She clearly seemed concerned for me, sitting on the top stair alone and all.

I shrug. “I’m just trying to write. Without all the noise, it’s easier in the silence, and it gives me inspiration.”

That was 100% all true. The silence had given me the inspiration to write, because I feel in a better writing mood when I’m alone.

Katie nods, then, after putting on her sandals, runs up the second set of stairs.

..................................................................................

I can hear the clip-clop of high heel shoes coming down the stairs. I look up to see a teacher. “What are you doing here?” she asked, putting her free hand on her hip. She had brown hair down to her shoulders and brown, strict eyes.

“Writing assignment for English” I reply, even though this is an assignment that my English teacher would never assign. Well, maybe she would, but right now she hadn’t so far.

The teacher shakes her head. “You aren't suppost to be on the stairway.”

I shrug. “The aids at recess know I’m here.”

She sighs. She knows I’m being stubborn. “Go up to the library.”

I nod, gathering my stuff. As soon as she leaves, I immediately put my stuff back down. No way I’m going to the library!

Then I think about it for a moment. She might come back I decide, then move to underneath the stairs. No way she would look under there!

Underneath, I try to write. It’s way too dark!

So, I move back to my regular spot, aware of the risk I’m taking of being sent to the principal.

So...................I’m alone again.

Alone. Why is that such a sad word? I’m alone right now, but I feel happy, listening to the raindrops. It’s gentle, the pitter-patter, and the comforting yet eerie silence.

Nobody’s come for a while....Maybe I should move. Nah, I feel comfy right here, my feet dangling above the stairwell, and where the rain can be heard. It’s as if they’re telling me all their little secrets.

The rain let go a little. The pitter-patter is hard to here now. I settle down in a comfy position, my legs crossed and me leaning down, looking down to the floor. It wasn’t a long drop, but I still was afraid of heights......just a little.

I start to think some more, very aware of the sounds surrounding me. The older students groaning at the sound of a week-long assignment, and the teacher telling them how to do it the easiest way.

I can hear footsteps coming towards the stairway. I scramble up, not wanting to get caught again.

It was just Keri-kohai, a girl a year below me. I nod to her, and she goes on her way.

……So I’m alone again.

I can hear people. The eight graders groaning at a month long English assignment, and the teacher telling them how to do it the easiest way. I smile, and wonder if that’d be me in a few months. It was June of seventh grade. In a couple months, I’d be like them. But I think I’ll manage.

People keep coming to the stairway now. I should go. But I will come back, maybe tomorrow, if it’s still raining. I always want to hear the little raindrop’s secrets. And I always will, if I listen closely.

Story
Why Shikamaru is lazy

Shikamaru sighed as he looked up at the clouds. He was lying down lazily and felt very bored. No training, no Choji, even Ino wasn’t around to bother him. He turned to his side and dozed off.

When Shikamaru opened his eyes, he saw some familiar, peppy blue eyes staring down at him. “What is it, Ino?” Shikamaru asked lazily, not bothering to get up.

Ino blinked. “Shikamaru, why are you so lazy?”

“Wha?!” Shikamaru was taken aback by Ino’s question. “Why do you ask?”

Ino shrugged. “I was just wondering…...I mean, you’re so smart that I thought you would be a ninja sooner then this. Or at least on a better team.” She rolled her eyes.

Shikamaru gave one of his lazy sighs. “How did you know I was smart? I never showed you or Choji. I only play Go and Shogi with Asuma-sensei.”

“During the first part of the Chunin exam, when I took over your body I saw all the answers right there!” Ino said simply, patting Shikamaru on the back. “I didn’t tell anyone because we didn’t have time!! Shikamaru, c’mon!! Tell me or else I’ll tell Asuma-sensei that you stole his cigarettes!!”

Shikamaru’s eyes shot up. “Damn woman, so troublesome” he muttered. “Fine, I’ll tell you”

Ino smiled. “Thanks, Shika-kun!”

Shikamaru sighed. “Yeah, whatever. Just don’t call me that. Ever. It all started four years ago…….”

Shikamaru smiled. He had finally entered the Ninja academy, and was ready to kick some butt!

Shikamaru’s hair wasn’t tied in a ponytail. It was cut short and his eyes were bigger, more curious then their state in the present.

“Hey Onee-chan!!!” Shikamaru shouted, waving his arms. “I’m finally gonna beat you! I’m gonna graduate from here soon!!”

An older girl smiled. She had, black hair tied in a high pony…..Same as Shikamaru!

“Wait a second!!” Ino interrupted. “I didn’t know you had a sister!”

Shikamaru groaned. “Why do you think I don’t want to tell you, troublesome woman?”

“WHATEVER!” Ino exclaimed. “This is getting good! On with the story!”

Chibi Shikamaru looked up at his older sister. “Big sis, I AM gonna beat you!” He exclaimed.

The girl smiled. “Good luck.” She said warmly. “But you better catch up quick. I’m already a graduate.” She showed her little brother her headband, which was latched firmly around her waist.

Shikamaru looked at it in awe. “No way, sis!” He exclaimed. “You can’t be a ninja already!”

His sister smiled. “Sorry Shika-kun.” She took her hair out of the pony, shaking it out. Her hair went down to her shoulders.

Shikamaru sighed. “Aw man.” He said quietly. “I wanted to beat you so badly.”

His sister was quiet for a minute. Then she grinned. “Hey, Shika-kun.” She said causally. She handed the hair band to Shikamaru. “I’ll make you a bet.” She kneeled, getting to about Shikamaru’s height. “I bet you can’t graduate here in a year.”

“Yes I can!” Exclaimed Shikamaru. “I will get out of here in one year!”

“Well.” She said. “If you graduate in one year, I promise to fight you. And whoever wins will be stronger. I’ll give you my hair band as a promise. When you beat me, give it back, OK?”

Shikamaru nodded. “OK.” He started to walk to the academy. “I’ll see ya, sis.” He gave a half-wave.

His sister smiled. “See ya, Shikamaru. You better wear that hair band!”

“I will!”

“I don’t get it.” Ino said. “You’re still wearing the pony. Did she beat you?”

“That’s not exactly the case.” Shikamaru said. His eyes seemed a little glazed.

“So, what happened?” Ino asked, confused.

Shikamaru wiped his face. His eyes were red and his breath was shaky. “Our parents never really got along.” He said gravely. “My sister didn’t like it. They were always fighting and going on. Finally, she couldn’t take it anymore. She ran away.”

Ino looked on, waiting.

Shikamaru ran outside. “Sis!!!!” he yelled to the trees. “Where are you??” Tears rolled down his cheeks. He wiped them vigorously. “Come back!” he shouted. “You pr-promised!!!” He yelled with all his might. “You’re a liar! Jerk! I wanted to fight you and you ran away like a coward!! I want to be stronger then you!”

Ino looked, shocked, at her teammate. “So she ran away? A missing nin?”

Shikamaru shook his head. “No. She didn’t get far.” He said shakily. “They found her headband just outside the village, covered in blood. They knew it was hers, because she wrote her name on the back.” Shikamaru closed his eyes. “K-e-i-k-o.”

Ino looked at him, waiting for more.

Shikamaru finally opened his eyes, looking at the ground. “The only reason I entered the academy was because I wanted to be stronger then my sister. After the news, well, I couldn’t bring myself to do anything. I lost the bet.” He chuckled a little. “It took me four years to graduate. That’s how long it took me to figure out that Keiko wanted me to graduate so we could hang out more. And she knew she was going to die, too. That’s why-” Shikamaru pulled out his hair band, letting his hair flow down his head. “-she gave this to me.”

“S-S-Shika-k-kun….”

“I told you not to call me that.” Shikamaru looked up to see Ino crying. “I-Ino?! What are you--?”

Ino cut off Shikamaru with a hug. “S-S-Shikamaru…….”

“What, Ino?” Shikamaru asked softly.

“Y-y-you must of (hic) been so sad!”

Shikamaru rolled his eyes. “Well, duh, but---.”

Ino sobbed. “I-I-I never knew!!!” she cried.

Shikamaru sighed, then hugged Ino a little. “Allright, allright, I get it. You’re sad. I’m sorry I made you cry…..”

Ino sniffed. “N-no-no you didn’t…….I-I’m sorry I never k-k-knew…..”

Shikamaru sighed. “And this is why I didn’t want to tell anyone, folks.” He said, waving his arms in the air. “I got enough of that when she died.” He let go of Ino, who wiped her face vigorously.

Ino looked at Shikamaru. “Shikamaru, your sister wore her headband around her waist?”

Shikamaru nodded. “Yeah. You kind of remind me of her”

Ino frowned. She took her headband from her waist and put it around her neck.

“What are you doing, Ino?” Shikamaru asked.

“Shikamaru, I hurt you every time you look at me!” Ino yelled. “Why didn’t you tell me to put my headband somewhere else?!”

Shikamaru smiled. “Because you remind me of her. I slacked off all the time because Keiko wasn’t around. But when I met you, I started getting a lot more active. I’ve always wanted you watching me, because I always wanted my sister to watch me in action.”

Tears appered in Ino’s eyes.

Shikamaru sighed. “Oh boy….” He muttered. “Look Ino, I won’t mention my sister again, OK?”

Ino glomped Shikamaru. “It’s ok, Shikamaru!” she said. “I’m just so happy!”

***************************************************
5 years later

Ino scrimmaged through the array of pictures and albums. “Why do I have to rummage and fix everything?” She muttered. “I mean, he did move into my house……” she stopped. “What’s this…..?” she asked herself, picking up a small photo.

It was a pretty girl with black eyes and black hair tied in a pony. Ino smiled. “So this is her.” She said quietly, smiling. “This is Keiko…….” She looked up, smiling at the sky. “So you’re watching Shika-kun, aren’t you…….? Thanks for such a cool boyfriend, Keiko. I wish I could meet you.”
