Immy:

Silver listened curiously, to how Sakura and Saskue explained skiing to her. It sounded fun- and she couldn't wait to try it out once they were settled in the cabin they would be staying at. Then her teammates started explaining more games, sports. and other things of the snowy mountains where they were vacationing. It was all so exciting! She didn't let it show though, just how excited she was about this trip. She still seemed like her calm and collected self.

Kakashi smirked lightly when Ahna mentioned that they were in the safe zone. He knew it'd be hard for her to just relax and sit back while on vacation, and he if was completely honest- he believed their students would really be the only ones to truly enjoy the vacation. Kakashi had been involved in too many high ranking missions, and nearly lost his students too many times to really let his guard down. Especially when so far from the village.

When they arrived, Silver had wrapped herself with the blanket she had brought, around her shoulders and over her head like a hood, as to not impair her walking. But she wasn't complaining about the cold. Snow was beautiful, no- it was gorgeous! She couldn't stop herself from sticking her tongue out and catching a snowflake, then giggled.

Nova_Alchemist:

Sasuke had kept an eye on Silver and Sakura but his attention kept reverting back to Silver. Watching her catch a snowflake or two on her tongue. He thought it was adorable in a way but would never admit it to anyone. Sasuke started talking with Ichi as they walked more into the village, the whole trip almost when not talking to the girls he was talking with their guide.

Ana seemed to relax more as she realized she needed to stop working sooner or later. Sooner would be best for her mentality and emotional state as she was already reach high levels after this last mission. Maybe she would work less with the missions and more just staying in inside the village but she found that boring. Ana could feel the shift of energy in the snow as if it stopped and it made her more relieved than ever before. She loved the snow for this one reason. They were all lead to a hotel as Ana asked Ichi to stay with them on the vacation since they had to be led back later on anyways. Ichi agreed.

"Alright so there should be enough rooms for all of us to get our own minus Kakashi and myself. Ichi I already planned for you to have your own room anyways as back up. So it's pre-set up for five rooms. So go pick your rooms." Ahna walked to the room her and Kakashi would be staying in as it was big and nice, it was a log cabin for all of them inside, it would hold no others and there would be a kitchen downstairs. A living room with a fireplace, a library, a game room for pool and other games. And even a sports room to try out new games and equipment. Ana never used her mission money except basic food or necessities, nothing else. So she had a lot to spoil the kids on.

Immy:

As they arrived at the hotel and Ahna explained to them that they would each have there own room, and they had five room to pick from, Silver only waited for Ahna to dismiss them before scurrying off to one of the rooms and claiming for herself. She was cold, and tired, and a little hungry..but most of all- excited to be in the land of snow. She couldn't keep the joy from her face, and Kakashi was happy to see her expressing herself for once. It had been awhile since he had seen the young silver haired kunoichi in such an untroubled state.

While their students were off picking their rooms, Kakashi gently placed his hands on Ahna's shoulders and glanced down at his partner once they were in their own room. "There is something I should probably tell you." He said to her in a calm, casual voice.

Nova_Alchemist: Ahna stopped unpacking her stuff as soon as she could hear his tone of voice which caught her curiosity. There were things that ran through her head as she figured it was probably best to slow her brain down to focus. "Why does that scare me?" Ahna spoke a bit sarcastically raising a brow wondering what the heck was going to happen now.

Sakura picked out her room at the end of the hall, Sasuke choose the room at the other end and they all had a joining balcony on the outside of their window like door. "Oh this is soooo incredible!" Sakura beamed wanting to go out and play in the snow now, but controlled herself to eat first. She unpacked her things as she knew her teammates were as well.

Sasuke had unpacked then decided it was time for a nap as he laid down closing his eyes for a few moments leaving his door halfway open. His eyelids were heavy as they couldn't stay open and closed allowing his breathing to slow. Ichi had walked in closing the door somewhat behind him as he sat on Sasuke's bed trying not to wake him. It had been years since he'd seen the loner ninja as vulnerable as he was now.

(no ichi is not gay)

Immy:

Silver got to unpacking her bag and changing into the outfit that Ahna had bought her, once she was over her excitement about being here. Then she remember how little sleep she had gotten the previous night, and decided to lay down just for a little bit. Maybe here, she wouldn't have any nightmares..

Kakashi chuckled and shook his head at her response. "It's not like that, I promise." He said to her. "I just wanted to tell you, since we're not in a mission, that Silver is mine. Silver is not from the leaf village, and I'm not entirely sure where she came from- but somehow she ended up here, and an old friend of mine took her in. A day while she was young, and had already graduated from the academy, he vanished but he first came to me and asked me to look over her. He didn't tell me where'd he be going, or when he'd be back..and she's still searching for him." Kakashi said to her.

Nova_Alchemist: I may not be up for long, no later than 11, gotta take melatonin to sleep tonight for my hay fever. Plus I'm excited, its almost saturday!!!

Ahna hadn't a clue on how to respond to what Kakashi had spoken to her about. It did make sense now with everything going on as well as Silver's noticeable (mostly to her) clinginess around Kakashi. "Well that explains it for sure. I always wondered why she clung around to your side and why you kept her closer than the other students. Now it makes much better since than before." Ahna should have realized this from the beginning, then again she wouldn't have had any reason to think of such. Shaking her head she smiled kindly "I'm glad that was the reason for the discussion, I'm glad you did take her in too, she's such a sweet child with a strong heart." Ahna complimented her.

Ichi wound up staying with Sasuke for only a short time then headed out into Silver's room checking on her. Noticing the silver haired ninja was asleep as of the moment, he walked over covering her up. Who Ichi was no one really had yet know, but so far he posed no imminent threat to anyone. Ichi did wind up going to talk to Sakura while she was still awake unpacking her things, she had lost her energy but kept her motivation going. "Ichi!? Oh my, you scared me. Is something wrong?" Sakura asked as Ichi simply shook his head sitting on her bed watching her unpack. "It's been awhile little cherry blossom" Ichi spoke in a low voice catching her attention which made her freeze. Not in fear. In realization.

Sasuke woke with a startled expression, he wasn't sure why he had just dreamed his brother Itachi kindly sitting on his bed watching over him. Whispering to him about apologizing for lying over the family...it stopped there as he woke up. Was he scared to remember something? Grimacing, Sasuke stood up staggering from just waking up - headed down to one of the rooms/silver's room to be exact. "Silver?" He whispered quietly walking in as he noticed she was asleep then stayed quiet not to wake her. Why was he in her room? Didn't he just have a dream...nightmare...something about his brother and family? Did he really think this would be consoling in any way? How could it be? They were just team mates, just that nothing more, nothing less.

Immy:

Kakashi chuckled and went about unpacking the rest of his things for the trip. She took that rather well, didn't she? All things were on the table now, and he had nothing else on his mind. Except Ahna, in their privacy.. but that was neither here nor there.

Silver was having her own nightmare, one she was hoping she could avoid while in the icy mountains She awoke when she heard someone in her room, small beads of sweat gathered on her forehead. She noticed the covers had been pulled over her, then she saw Saskue looking as if he had..an unpleasant rest. "Saskue?" She murmured quietly as she sat up and slid her legs over the side of the bed.

Nova_Alchemist: and this is why i dont read romance mangas this late at night XD I squeal without notice lol everyone is asleep....
Haha.

Ahna went back to unpacking her things until she walked over to him placing a kiss on his cheek not saying why she did so then went back to humming and putting her stuff away. She just figured it would be because he's kind enough to take her in. He could have said no, but in the end...well it probably worked out better this way.

Sasuke looked at her "Did you have a nightmare too?" Sasuke had no idea but she didn't look too comfortable with the way she was sleeping when he walked in. "Evetrything alright? Do you want to talk about it?" that's if she remembered it that is. Sasuke wasn't sure if remembering his brother telling him something before leaving the village was something to talk about or not. Though he must admit he did miss the sense of being in a family.

Immy: xD
trying to do a pic for Ahna/ Kashi but her hair is being stupid x.x

Kakashi smiled when he received a kiss from Ahna, even if it was only on the cheek. "Do you want some help putting away your things?" He offered, having most of his stuff unpacked and put up.

Silver averted her turquoise eyes and shook her head lightly. She remembered..but not enough to really talk about it. Plus, she never talked about her nightmares- not even to Kakashi. "What about you?" She asked quietly, glancing at him curiously. She didn't know the other to seeking out someone to chat with- but this was the first off-mission time she'd gotten to spend with the raven haired boy.

Nova_Alchemist: Re create the hair then, it can be long, braided, messy, short, in the wind, medium length, hell you can do anything with it. Change it up if you wish lol I'm always changing my hair.

"If you wish to..." Ahna wanted to ask him something, sure she could learn on her own but where was the fun in that? "So later on in the next day or so, could you show me how to do something?" Ahna asked as she hung up a couple shirts. She didn't like asking for helping or showing weakness, but with Kakashi she didn't see it that way. Still she had her moments.

Sasuke sighed staying silent for a few moments then spoke up. "I miss the way things used to be, the way a family feels, and the way it is to be a sibling to another." Sasuke continued "I used to spend a lot of time with my nii-san well older brother before things went downhill. He used to teach me how to do a lot of things: ride a bike, he would read to me at night, and even chase off those who would try to bully me. Though always got scolded by our parents for doing so." Sasuke almost smiled there but the memory of his brother telling him [Hate only me]

Immy: i meant the style i'm trying to do for her xD
hair is not my thing ><

Kakashi got up from the bed and began helping Ahna put away her things, leaving the clothes mainly to her. He put up the smaller things, or whathaveyou. He blinked when she spoke up, then nodded to her and went back to helping her. "Sure, what is it you want me to show you?" He asked, curious.

Silver actually smiled a little, when he started talking to her about what was probably on his mind.
..A family..wasn't something she knew though- how could she comfort him, or whatever, if she didn't even know what that felt like? Koga was the only 'family' she had before he vanished. Kakashi tried to be her family- but she just didn't see him that way, and Orochimaru.. well.. she was still feeling him out. Sure, he told her a lot of things that no else would, and he's tried helping her find Koga- but he wasn't family. What was a family, anyway? Most of her childhood memories were gone.. Silver shook her head lightly and stood, walking over to Saskue, and placed a light hand on his shoulder. Itachi was his brother, she figured that out when he suddenly showed up to help them after they were ambushed. "How about we go out for some air? I'm sure our sensei's won't mind, as long as we stay close to the cabin." She offered.

Hahaha like I said, do as you wish Nova_Alchemist: going to get a post in then off to bed.

Ahna's cheeks turned slightly pink as she didn't turn from the closet "Can you teach me to...um...ice skate?" Ahna was old enough that you would think the ninja would know how to. However missions and what not aside, she had never ice skated before. The only time ice was involved was when she needed it for an attack or was being attacked by it.

Sasuke heard her speak, he wasn't looking for a way to be comforted. He just figured they never got a chance to talk before, even Sakura has no idea about his past; nodding he went along with the idea. "Sure, sounds better than sleeping." Sasuke spoke, he had never been to this nice cabin before but he knew what they could do to relax. Sasuke went to get his coat, hat, and gloves (as well as a scarf) to be ready to go outside in the cold. It wasn't dark or anything, but right now it was really rather quiet. "Don't forget to dress warm, just because it looks nice out, doesn't mean it's warm." Sasuke said in a semi caring/warning tone.

Immy: baby's with her grandma~
don't know for how long
finally got Ahna's hair on her bald head xD i'll send a link when it's finished, yes?
^~^

Silver smirked when he silently agreed to her idea, and turned around to put on the thick lilac purple coat, ivory gloves, and a light brown scarf,that Ahna had bought her. When she fell asleep, she was still wearing her boots- so that wasn't an issue. Once bundled, and she started feeling like a purple penguin, she joined Saskue to go outside and stepped out onto the porch. She just couldn't get over the beauty of the snow-covered land.

Kakashi binked at her request, then nodded to her with a light smirk. "Of course, there's nothing to it really." He said to her in a softer tone. His attention went elsewhere for a moment when he heard the wooden door open and close, as well as the voices of two of their students. He didn't mind though- seeing how they probably knew better then to wonder too far from the cabin. Turning his attention back to Ahna, he finished helping her put away her things, then leaned against the wall next to the door.

Nova_Alchemist: Yes do show me later. Maybe I can get my cousin to inspire me lol

"Come on, let's take a short walk. Clear our heads" Sasuke spoke to her as he led the way down a path that would lead to where a few things like the skii lift, a lake covered with ice a few miles out (if they wanted to that is), and the hills that would almost seem endless for stunts. Sasuke would wait until they were out of sight enough then without being seen scooped some snow into a snow ball throwing it up in the air making it land on Silver's head as he pretended like he didn't do it. Though he was trying not to smirk at the fact he did something so childish.

Ahna didn't mention how she felt about not knowing how to do anything, as a kid she always wanted to be on his level for various reasons. He befriended her, so did Gai but Gai befriended everyone, so he didn't really count at the moment. She yearned for attention but only from him when she was a kid. She was the one people feared, after all with what happened back then who could have blamed her, and she - at that time - truly hated the leaf village. Well the hokage but the leaf village never went against the hokage so she began to hate them as well. Ahna hated thinking about the past, it always put her in a sour mood and that wasn't what she wanted right now.

Ahna had forgotten to change before getting to the colder temperatures, probably because she was so distracted she didn't realize how cold she was. She felt foolish now as she undressed to her undergarments putting on a black turtleneck with comfortable fitting skinny blue jeans, but left her shoes off. She didn't think they'd go out right away so she put on white socks to feel comfortable. Walking over to Kakashi she tilted her head slightly but with a smile said "You know, Jiraiya did say we should read that one book together, I am not sure why. But would you like to?" Her blue eyes waiting for his response though if he didn't want to they didn't have to.

Immy: yay~
^0^

Silver nodded, and followed Saskue down to the slopes, near the skii lift. She was marveled by the endless sea of white that painted the mountains, and pulled the hood of her coat up over her head. Being so lost in the beauty of the snow mountains in the distance, Silver spazzed when something cold landed on the top of her coat hood. She turned around, knocking the snowball off from the top of her head, and she stared at Saskue, curious. No one else was around, and he was smirking. Silver smirked as well and scooped up some snow to make her own snowball, and threw it at her teammate's chest. As to not hit him in the face with the small ball of soft ice. Then she plopped down on the snow as if it were a bed, and began making a snow angel without knowing it. She thought she was just moving her arms and legs to enjoy the snow more, and started giggling.

Kakashi casually moved over to the bed, and slipped the book out of his pocket. He hadn't started reading it, he just wanted to keep it on him for some odd reason, and held it up to her. "Why not? The kids are enjoying themselves, so should we." He said to her with a smile.

Nova_Alchemist: Ahna sat next to Kakashi as the two began to read, though the beginning did say something like To two very important readers, this does concern you, thanks for the inspiration then that was it. Chapter 1: The Event The story itself had characters that played a part resembling two certain people as well as their aspects, but nothing 'adult-ish' happened yet. The story was beginning to sound old romantic style and it appeared the inspiration spoken of, was about two from the leaf village. The girl had long blonde hair always down flowing about her and past her waist. Light skin with a cute appearance in the body form, but at times very alluring. Her eyes were an ultra light stunning blue which made her stand out amongst others. Being 5"6 she was a bit shorter than the male in the book who stood 5"9. The guy in the book, resembled as an assassin (to take out the girl) had silver-white hair yet a bit messy covering the guy's left eye while the right one was completely black. Normal skin tone, not light nor dark, and athletically fit. Ahna blinked at the characters' appearance, there was no way, must be a coincidence.

Sasuke didn't dodge it, snowball fights were meant to hit their targets most of the time. Sasuke walked over grinning pulling out a camera taking a quick picture then putting it back away. "Looks like you made your first snow angel, Silv." Sasuke said then stood looking out at the sky as it was more clear than ever during the cold weather revealing the twinkling stars. "This is just the beginning of what you can do out here, we'll work on skiing and snowboarding once our sensei's let us." Though he wouldn't mind doing something without their acknowledgment.

Immy:

Kakashi chuckled at reading the intro, about them being inspiration. This was going to be interesting in the very least. He'd keep reading it though, finding the character's resemblance to themselves uncanny. Maybe that's what he meant by inspiration.. Where would the story take them, he wondered.

http://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gif

Silver blinked a few times when her teammate mentioned her first snow angel, and she paused. Not even noticing him take a picture of her. She slowly got up, careful not to mess it up so she could see it herself. "A snow angel?" She voiced quietly as she stared down at her creation, soon smiling. Silver glanced over at Saskue for a moment, nodding to his words about snowboarding and skiing. "I'd like that." She said casually, then she picked up some snow in her hands and balled it up, then she threw it up in the air just so it would hut the tree branches and fall around her like falling snow. It wasn't really snowing right now.. so she made it snow just for herself. It'd probably start snowing later in the day. She glanced back at him, before walking over to him and smirking. "Maybe they won't mind- as long as we don't wander too far off?"

Nova_Alchemist: (alright I am back, I found out I have Eczema which is irritating for me)

Ahna was still reading as her face turned red when a 'kiss in the trees' appeared making her wonder how the heck he 'found' this inspiration. She was flustered and knew if she spoke then he would notice this. So she just stayed focus on the fact she could feel the warmth of Kakashi next to her as she laid her head on his shoulder reading at a side angle. Not really reading, more like spacing out.

Sasuke for once was glad a certain pink hair ninja was distracted, though not sure if that distraction was completely good or not, Sasuke figured it was probably for the better. He was used to a hyperactive obsessed fangirl following him around than anything else. Though he would enjoy the time until she would go back to being her normal self once more. "Do you want to explore now or try skiing or snowboarding?" Sasuke would give her the option, though he wasn't sure the senseis would be too happy about doing the skiing thing by themselves but what was the worse thing that could happen?

Immy: welcome back~
oh? will you be alright?

Kakashi's expression didn't really change much as he read the comic. He was mostly just enjoying the time spent with Ahna, but he was interested in this book, and where the guy found his 'inspiration'.

http://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gif

Silver took only a moment to think about what she wanted to do. The thing their sensei's wouldn't mind so much.. How far could they get if he tried teaching her how to snowboard? Too far probably. Deciding, she casually slipped her hands into the pockets of her puffy jacket. She's take the heat for it later. This was the one time she could be with Sasuke when he wasn't being a hard ass. Wait..why was thinking about that?! "Teach me how to snowboard. This way the others won't laugh if I fail." She mused, smirking to hide her fluster.

Nova_Alchemist: gotta stop doing this lol I'm back again. I came for that event but got busy, tired, and overworked with stress.

Ahna actually wound up falling asleep with her head on Kakashi's shoulder. She wouldn't admit it but she didn't get much sleep lately as everything creeped her out from time to time since that one mission a few months back.

http://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gif

Sasuke smirked "Alright, but when you do fall and I know you will. I'll make sure to try and make it not obvious I am laughing." Sasuke joked in a harsh way but it was meant to be harmless. He lead her over to where they could get two snowboards picking out the one that was black with blue on it. "Which design do you want?" Sasuke asked showing her that there were very many of them. He almost got the see through one that was clear to where it would look like he wasn't riding nothing on the snow. But decided against it.

Immy: it's alright! welcome back~
are you alright, now? O.o also- sorry i haven't replied to the criminal minds Rp ><

Kakashi blinked once he realized that Ahna had fallen asleep on him, and a tender smile graced his face. He slowly put the book down on the nearby nightstand, careful not to wake his assistant, and gently wrapped his arms around her small figure. He'd just lay there with her, holding her like this until she woke up again- or until something happened. She'd probably wake up anyway if something did happen though.

http://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gif

Silver tried not to smirk at his remark, then she followed him to the shop. She looked at the different snowboards and pointed out one that was a sea green with a light purple lotus flower on the tip of the board. "That one." She said quietly as she picked it out. "I like the flower on it.." Silver murmured in a quiet voice, a little embarrassed since her teammates didn't really see her with 'girly' looking things very often.

Nova_Alchemist: this is gonna be small most likely.

Ahna felt herself drifting away into a blissful moment as she slept not realizing she was letting her guard down around the one person she did trust dearly.

==============

Sasuke heard which one she pointed out raising a brow at the one she chose but didn't dare to comment on it just yet. "We'll take them both" Sasuke said as the guy behind the desk handed Sasuke the board he chose and Silver the one she chose. "Be careful out there you two, the weather gets treacherous at night and you'll lose track of time. Once the sun sets, come back in." The older man spoke, his eyes were a pale light blue meaning he was blind but still understood they were only children.

"Don't worry about it, we can handle this." Sasuke walked out with his board and gear making sure to have Silver's gear as well. Once outside to a hill which they could both go down, he handed her hers, and started putting his on. "Stand up when you are ready and turn your snowboard so that the lead end of the board is pointing down the hill." Sasuke began explaining how things would be done to not get hurt or fall off.

Immy: i told myself i wouldn't post until i could reply to the criminal minds Rp xD
thanks for the help, btw <3

Kakashi continued to hold Ahna as she rest.

Silver smirked lightly, and nodded to the male's words as he mentioned coming in before dark. She casually followed Sasuke outside. Once they reached the hill, she retrieved her gear from her teammate, and then began putting on the protective gear. Then she sat down on the snow to put her board on, and carefully stood the way Sasuke explained- having her board lead end pointing down the hill. She was a little nervous..staring down the hill for a moment before glancing at Sasuke. "So.. how do we 'go'?" She asked curiously, seeing how she wasn't moving.

Nova_Alchemist: No problem. Glad I could help, gave me more time to take control of the story line. I rarely do that but I do it when it is needed, so don't be afraid to ask for help either. I'm not like others and you're a roleplay partner I like.

Sasuke wondered if she was nervous or not so he figured they'd make this an interesting little game. "Move your body to push off forward, left goes left, and right goes right. You may have to find your footing before you get the hang of it, but it shouldn't be too long until you do." Sasuke explained some basics as he jumped off the ground a small bit which helped him start down the hill as he turned to watch her. "Come on, let's race. Whoever hits the bottom first, wins." there wasn't technically a bottom.

Ahna woke to laying in Kakashi's arms as her face turned red slightly "Sorry Kashi, guess I was more tired than I thought." Ahna rubbed her eyes and then looked up at him wondering if he was awake or had fallen asleep too.

Immy: aw, you're a role play partner i like too ^~^
thanks, and i will if i need to :3

Kakashi smiled down at her when he heard her voice. "I don't mind, seeing how I got to hold you all this time." He replied casually, hugging her as he spoke. Kakashi kissed the top the of her head before slowly releasing her from his arms. "I put the book on the night stand while you slept." He commented quietly.

http://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gifhttp://orig07.deviantart.net/36c5/f/...om-d8pakcw.gif

Silver glanced down at her feet after hearing Sasuke explain how to get moving, then she watched him as he did a small jump, which seemed to make going easier. So she tried it. She did exactly what he did, and jumped off the ground a bit while leaning forward some- and down the hill she went. It surprised her at first, then she smirked at his challenge and nodded. "You're on!" She called over to her teammate, leaning left or right when needed to keep her steady. She wasn't exactly the most balanced, in this yet.

((should i bring in Kabuto, to scare the animals or something? awkwardness~
xD))
