IMPORTANT!

This story is the text version of a story I have going through HARPG on DeviantArt (HorseArt-RolePlayGame) where my stable owner is able to travel to and from the Naruto World. Some concepts and chapters are co-written by a friend on DA. You can find her by following the below link and looking into the original version of the story.

The original is both literature AND art based, so I highly encourage you to check it out! This version is in 1st person POV, however the original is No/ Nuetral POV. Some original characters in this story may act OOC, due to timeline and event changes, and changes caused by the presence of new people/ characters. Please keep this in mind as you read!

I yawned and fought the urge to fall asleep standing as I poured my first cup of coffee for the day. At 4:30 in the morning, I had a lot of work ahead of me. I slipped my boots on and headed out to the barn, my two canine companions tailing behind me. I laughed, sliding open the barn door as the two dogs tore down the isle. They stopped occasionally to give a greeting to the horses. Mako, the male german shepherd loved Nali the most. As he stopped to say hello to her, Korra, the female german shepherd, stopped to say hello to Ben, her barn favorite. I shivered and took another swig of my coffee. Just as it's rumored to be, the New England weather was being unpredictable, dropping down to 20 degrees overnight. The barn was chilly, and I could easily see My breath leave my mouth.

I set the coffee down on the little table below the white board which held announcements for workers, and set off to dish out morning hay and grain. Currently, only six horses lived on the farm, so there wasn't much to feed out. After they were happily eating, I sat down in the barn lounge and turned up the heat. Mako and Korra curled up in their crates to take a nap, and I decided it was time to head back to the house to eat something myself. I rose from my chair and stretched, turning towards the door. Just before I was about to leave the warmth of the lounge, a knock rapped on the door. I stood up from the couch in the center and walked over to the door, wondering who the hell was here at 5am. I stepped out into the barn isle, but saw no one. The only visible horse was Ben, who had his head hanging over the stall door watching me intently. I walked over to him and took his head in my arms. He was such a love.

"Don't worry, boy. Mara will be by later to see you." Ben snorted and retreated back into the stall to finish his hay. Mara was the girl who owned him, and my best friend. Tyson let out a soft nicker before trying to nip at Rio through the small gaps in the boarding between their stalls. Rio replied with a shrill screech and a kick to the back wall. "Knock it off!" I yelled, peering in at the black and white appaloosa sport horse, who looked back at me sheepishly for being scolded. After checking the other horses, I turned to head back to the lounge to grab my coffee before heading back to the house.

That was when I saw it. Lying in the middle of the barn isle was a small brown box wrapped with a light pink bow. What the-? I thought, walking over to it and picking it up. There was a card on top. "Open in privacy." it said. That's...odd. I walked into the lounge and sett the package down on the table. I hesitated for a moment before tearing it open.

Inside lay a small watch. I picked it up and turned it over in my hands. It was a pocket-watch-style wristwatch. The top was only a metal cover with the letter "K" on it. I turned it over a couple more times but found nothing else. I flipped open the latch expecting to find a clock inside, but instead I found a button. It was the same shade of red as the K on the latch. "What do you think, guys?" I asked, looking over at Mako and Korra. They just looked up from their nap, then went back to sleep. "Okay then." I hesitated for one moment, then pressed the button.

I suddenly saw nothing. It was pure darkness. For a moment I began to panic, not sure what was happening. I had thought the watch was a prank from Nokaia. He was well known around the barn for practical jokes. I had never thought something would actually happened.

Mari

Despite the pure darkness, I spun around.

"Hello?" I called, hearing my voice echo.

Mari Hemmingway

This time I said nothing. I couldn't say anything. I was silent with terror. Part of me still hoped it was a joke from Nokaia, and that any minute he would say 'you've been served' or something lame like he usually does.

But as usual, I was wrong.

Your wish has been granted.

"Wish!? Granted!? Granted by WHO!?" I yelled, hoping for some type of answer. However it was too late. I found myself rushing towards a beam of light, and suddenly fell hard to the ground. I immediately jumped up and looked around, and that was where the problem lied. I recognized the town I was in, only it wasn't a town. It was a village. Not just any village, however. As I turned around in disbelief, I realized where I was. It was Konohagakure, or "Konoha." I was in the Naruto world.
