"Yes Man! Brilliant film that!" Kikuyo shoved it into the DVD player before listening to anyone else's opinions.

"Bye, guys!" Aya yelled as they all piled out the door, close to midnight. Her mother came in and cleaned up before tucking her in and majinkg sure her bandages were clean and nothing weird was happening.

Kikuyo went home, but she wasn't really tired. She sat outside under the cherry tree with her sketchbook, drawing the moon (the only thing bright enough for her to see clearly).

"AYA! Get back into bed!" Naruto yelled at his daughter who was attempting to venture downstairs and into the kitchen, failing epically when she fell and landined behind the couch. "OH GOD!" He jumped from his seat infront of the window looking down towards the village and ran to pick up Aya, who was sprawled out.
"Ow I couldn't help it. i was hungry and I didn't want to wake mum or bother you." Aya groaned, "I just want Ramen!"

In the end, Ino managed to drag Kikuyo back inside the house and made her go to bed, and inn the end she managed to get to sleep, dreaming about a tree which grew crescent moons and was trying to kidnap Aya and Namihiko...

"Morning guys." Aya grinned down the walky talky as she watched Tai, with his minor scratches and bruises and Kikyou go to training with Kiba Sensei. "Enjoy it for me, will yous?"

"Like there's a chance of that happening," Tai and Kikuyo chorused together.
"What's the matter with you two?" yelled Kiba. "Hurry up!" Akamaru barked.

"So, what are you doing today?" Aya squinted to look at them through the telescope. She saw Akumaru and Kiba barking with laughter at Tai face planting the grass after tripping on a stick. He's smart but not graceful, Aya thought.

"Troublesome..." moaned Tai, getting to his feet.
"You hurry up and get better," Kikuyo said into her walkie talkie. "I hate being stuck with this lot."

"Right, dude. Have fun!" Aya squeeked down the talkie before discarding it on the bed side table and she began sneaking down into the kitchen again...

Training was dull because Kikuyo couldn't summon the motivation for anything. In the end Kiba told them to go home, knowign that their teamwork was suffering because Aya wasn't there.
Kikuyo was almost home when she heard a shout. Looking around she saw it was Su, running towards her. "Kikuyo!! You've got a mission, you and your team! You have to go report to the Hokage now!"

"Aya, honey." Naruto poked his head around the door. "Your team has a mission breif."
"WHAT?" Aya tried to get up and fell to the floor.
