"Looks like it. Think we should wake him up or let him sleep?" Amaya asked. She was glad that she had listened to Naruto and hoped that someone could fill the void that Hinata's death caused.

Hikari bit her lip. She didn't want to wake the boy, but she wanted them all to be ready for the day. She fought with herself for a moment, then sighed. "Let him sleep. If he's that tired, he probably needs it." She said, deciding her team's well-being was more important.

"Gonna let your boyfriend sleep in?" Naruto asked teasingly. He wanted to show the two females in the room that he was now okay.

Hikari blushed. "He's not my boyfriend, he's a team mate who clearly needs the sleep. I'd do the same for you or Maya-chan." She said.

Naruto raised hi hands in defense. "Okay, okay, I didn't mean anything by it! Just an innocent comment, dattebayo!" He said, sensing that he should back off before she killed him.

"Perhaps we should ask Blake-chan what she thinks about you teasing Kari-chan, hm?" Amaya asked in response.

"Urk!" Naruto backed up as far as he could go, considering he was still on his bed. "I'm not teasing! Not at all! He said, then turned his head. "Not that it matters, since Blake-chan has no reason to care anyway. It's not like we're together."

"Sounds like you're not too happy about that, Naruto-kun. Maybe you'd like to upgrade your relationship status?" Hikari teased.

"I think it's kinda cute," Amaya said as she continued teasing the fox boy. "Besides...don't you feel like Blake-chan is hiding something?" she asked.

Naruto looked surprised. "Hiding something? No, I didn't get that feeling at all. Why, what do you think she's hiding?" He asked. At that moment, he honestly wasn't thinking of Blake's secret, so he was truly confused.

"Maybe a secret then?" Hikari asked as she thought about what Amaya could be thinking of.

Areku yawned softly as he woke up, hearing the voices of his teammates.'Did I oversleep? he thought. And if that was the case, why didn't anyone wake him up?

((Okay, no. Sorry, but please do not take control of Wolfie's OC. She's not ok with that.))

(I apologize.)

((That's okay, just please don't do it again.))

Hearing a yawn, Hikari looked over to see that Ark had finally woken up. "Hey, look, Rip Van Winkle is awake." She teased.

"100 years already?" he asked jokingly as he stretched lightly. "When did you all wake up?" the second question was asked with genuine curiosity.

"It's been about an hour, I think. We let you sleep because you seemed to need it." Kari replied. "That, and we were having too much fun teasing Naruto-san." She added with a laugh.

Areku laughed. "It wouldn't happen to be because of his feline friend?" he asked. While others may have missed it, he noticed the small things that Blake did that made him think that she was a Faunice.

Hikari's face went blank, and one could almost see the question mark over her head. "Feline? Naruto-san has a cat?" She asked curiously.

Naruto nearly panicked, but managed to keep his cool. "What are you talking about, Ark-san? No, Kari-chan, I don't have a cat. I think Ark-san is still dreaming." He said.

At that moment, Uchiha Itachi arrived in the courtyard in front of Beacon. This was where Hikari's message had come from. His first order of business, he supposed, was to find the headmaster. It would cause a panic if he just randomly appeared without telling whoever was in charge.

Areku noticed Naruto panic for a few seconds and realized that he hadn't told anyone, nor had Blake told anyone either. "Sorry, yeah, I'm just dreaming," he said before apologizing to Naruto for that. However, he would be talking to the fox later on in private.

Looking suspiciously back and forth between the two boys, Hikari eventually decided to let it go. ((Must resist song reference.)) If it was important, they would tell. "Right...well, let's get going. I want to be ready for-" She paused, pulling out her locket. "It's warm. Itachi-sensei is here!" She said excitedly.

(so I'm not the only one who has to resist making Frozen references...and I'm currently listening to said song btw. With that being said...should we add Elsa and some of the others to the RP at a later date, like as a rivaling team for either Team HANA or Team RWBY?)

"He is?" Amaya asked. She had heard stories about Uchiha Itachi and was curious to see if the rumors were true...

((Well, Wolfie has never actually seen the movie. She just knows the song because every time she says those words, her sister starts to sing it Still, if you want to do that, then go right ahead. Just remember that Wolfie doesn't know the characters.))

Hikari, already more excited than any of them had ever seen her, nodded. "Yes, definitely! Come on, we've gotta go meet him!" She said, practically bouncing up and down.

(I thought you had, which is why I made the comment in the first place . Oh well...it isn't half as fun if you don't know the characters)

Areku chuckled as he came out of the bathroom, his snowy locks still drying from the shower he took a few seconds ago. Dressed in his usual garb. "I take it that Itachi-san is here?" he asked, amused.

((Wolfie hopes to see the movie soon.))

Hikari actually did jump up and down now. "Yes! Come on, Ark-san, we have to go!" She said impatiently.

Naruto started to laugh. "Calm down, Kari-chan! He's not going to leave without seeing you, right? You don't have to rush." He said.

(Phoenix hopes you enjoy it when you do see it)

Amaya laughed as well. "Foxy-kun has a point here Kari-chan..."

Hikari pouted. "I know, but...I'm so excited! I haven't seen Itachi-sensei in so long!" She said, sounding a bit like a child.

Ark couldn't resist but laugh at Hikari's actions. "Alright alright, let's go. Otherwise our leader might just have a heart attack," he teased.
