Aneki and Otouto (P, NK)

"Sure, Kojin. I don't mind. By the way, I was going to get some ice-cream from the cart over there. I have the money for two. You want a cone?" Kirameki said, her ear twitching subconsciously.

Kojin looked back at the line again then to Kira. "Sure I'll have one, it won't take that long to get to the front of the line anyway." He replied. "But I'm not sure if I can repay you later, someone stole all my money some time ago." He then rose from his seat from on the ground. "No worries though! I'll find a way soon enough."

Kirameki smiled. "Oh, no problem. The ice-creams on the, er, tent, I guess, since that's where I live. Wait, someone stole your money? Are you ok, Kojin?" she said. Kirameki had started off in a joking tone, though near the end her voice held genuine concern. "He didn't hurt you in any way, right?" Kira, too, stood up.

Kojin then grinned at her. It was really nice to know that she cared about him. "He did, but it's alright now! I heard he got in trouble with the Kazekage and... well.. unfortunately died. At least he's in a better place!" he replied. He dashed towards the line and got behind the person in front of him. "Come on Kira! Hurry and get in line so we can get snow cones!" he exclaimed with a smile.

Kirameki dashed along with him. There were still a few people ahead of them, ond one particular lady was taking forever to order. "D-died...? Kojin, why did Kazekage-sama kill him. The Kazekage doesn't generally kill his villagers, especially for just taking some ryo. Only serious offences. Do you know what he did?" she asked sternly, starting to get really worried about the little kid. There are very few things that would cause Kazekage-sama to kill one of his own ninja... What did this man do...?

Kojin's smile faltered until it finally settled on a small frown. "Honestly... I don't really remember. I was unconscious when he did something real serious to me. But, he did stab my leg and knock me out with a beer bottle! You know that I got a piece of glass into my head?! Man, I hated him for that!!" he shouted causing a few people from the line to stare at him. Blushing from the attention, he put his head down and lowered his voice. "It doesn't really matter anymore though..." he mumbled. Kojin then focused his attention on the line, only about two or three people were left in front of them.

So, you were unconscious, huh? I think I know what happened, but... I won't say anything. "Ouch! If I could, I'd get him back for that, for you. But I guess Kazekage-sama took care of that for me, huh? Oh, look, it's out turn!" she said, not mentioning her suspicions. It was, indeed, their turn to order. "Ok, I'd like a vanilla icecream cone, please. What do you want, Kojin?" she said.

Kojin looked at and smiled at her. "Yea, I like the Kazekage for that. You know I heard he's only 14! Plus he's from the Uchiha clan in Konoha!" he said, "And I'll like some Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough." He licked his lips at the thought of ice cream. So creamy and delicious, especially if it's vanilla with bits of chocolate in there! The nice treat will definitely cool him down from the blazing sun. "Hey, Kira, have you ever been to another village?" he asked.

"And one Cookie dough for him, please!" Kirameki said, handing the ice-cream man the ryo and taking the two ice-cream cones. She handed the cookie dough to Kojin and licked her own vanilla. "Only 14? Wow, he's only my age..." she said, honestly suprized. Upon his question, she blushed a little, a certain face coming to mind. "Well, actually, yes, I have. I've been to Funka once, and I was thinking of taking another trip soon and touring the villages, from Konoha to Igloo, and see what there is to see." she said, taking another like of the creamy cold treat. Oh, how she loved cold, sweet things.

Taking the ice cream, the boy looked up at her with sparkling eyes. "You're actually going to tour other villages? Wow, that' so cool! Do you think I can come with you?" he exclaimed. The farthest Kojin had ever been was on the outskirts of the village and that was it. He even thought about asking the Kazekage to let him explore the world. 'Just thinking all the different places and people there gets me excited!' he thought. Though, the places he wants to visit most are Konoha and Kumogakure. He then licked some of his ice cream since it already started to melt.
