Since Naruto was a little child he would always go to the forest whenever he felt sad, angry or alone . He knew that he wasn't supposed to go to that forest but he didn't care . He took the chance . And his life had changed the day that he entered that forest . . . "The Forest Of Death"
Naruto was aware of the name and it's bad reputation but he decided to venture through the forest anyway . Sobbing with tears, Naruto ran through the forest as fast as he could not daring to look back . He ran farther and farther tears falling and hitting the green forest floors . He had never gone this far before but this time was different . He had given up all hope . He didn't care if he'd gotten hurt, all he could think of was running . Running like he was running from all of the pain and suffering .
Once deep into the forest, Naruto stopped and paused for a moment . He looked around and wiped the tears from his round cheeks . He stood there for a moment and realization had hit him that he had gotten lost, lost in the darkness of the forest and he was alone again .
Tears began rapidly falling from his ocean blue eyes as curled his knees up .
'No one loves me . . . No one will ever love me . . .and nobody will ever come looking for me . . .they're happier when I'm gone '
he thought to himself bringing his knees closer and burring his face in them .
Naruto's head shot up at the sound of ruffling leaves and immediately stood up . He was afraid . He ran to a near by bush to hide away from whatever was there .
After a few minutes he peeked his head from the bush hoping that he was safe . His eyes widened when he spotted a figure in a black cloak with a hood . The figure had given what appeared to be acorns to a squirrel and petted it's head .
Naruto stood there in awe as he saw the figure remove it's hood . It wasn't a person, it was a monster . The most beautiful monster he had ever seen . His snow white hair glowed so alluring in the moonlight along with his pale mint green skin . He also had soft features and looked delicate like a flower . It was then when he had turned to look in Naruto's direction that he had saw two horns sitting on the sides of his forehead and mix- matched eyes, one purple like an amethyst crystal and the other ruby red . He blinked slowing revealing his long eyelashes and stood there staring straight in Naruto's direction startling the little boy .
Butterflies moved around in Naruto's stomach as he thought he had been spotted . The leaves from the bush brushing up against his nose made his nose itchy and his eyes watery . A single tear fell as he tried to hold back the urge to sneeze .
Unfortunately Naruto couldn't hold it anymore and he let it all out .
"Achoo!" Naruto sneezed scaring off the squirrel and he saw the monster began to approach the bushes . Naruto got up and ran sprinted off running as fast as he could and before he knew it he was out of the forest .
