Hey everyone.
I hope you had an enjoyable Christmas.
I sure did.
I got New Moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn from my dad. Well, I got more than that but those were the major things. My sister got me the first volume of xxxHoLic. And my mom got me an mp3 player and Naruto uncut box set volume 10 (this has episodes 121-135).
So, how was your guy's Holidays? Did you get what you wanted? I thought I'd give this to everyone as a late Christmas present.
Please enjoy.

The villagers of Otogakure stared in wonder at the ship in their port. Many of them had never seen a ship so majestic. They watched as the plank was lowered, so the passengers could exit, and started gossiping as soon as they saw the elegantly dressed man descend. The buzzing of the gossipers increased as the man headed towards the largest house in the village.
What did the governor, Lord Orochimaru want with the Uchihas?
Has something happened to the Sandaime Sarutobi?
The buzzing impossibly grew louder when the villagers saw the Lord Fugaku Uchiha walk out of the house, his two sons following. They watched as Orochimaru boarded the ship and a few minutes later un boarded with several men following him. Two set down a small table they were carrying, one set down a chair, another man sat at the table and the two carrying the table stood in front of it.
As soon as they had finished, Fugaku turned to the villagers. "Good people. As you know, many sailors are choosing to become Akatsuki."
The crowd nodded. Akatsuki, a devil religion that many fine sailors and soldiers chose to follow; everyone in the village knew that Itachi, Fugaku's oldest son, had started to travel down that path before he was saved by Sasuke, his younger brother.
"Because of this tragedy, Lord Orochimaru is looking for young, strong men to volunteer to sail with him to the new world and set up a colony there."
Many people began to whisper, unsure of volunteering, "I know many of you are uncomfortable with this idea, but both of my sons have agreed to captain the ship. I wish them and any of the volunteers God's grace on their journey." And with that said Fugaku walked back to his house. Many people started murmuring again, but suddenly a man with silver hair and an eyepatch walked up and signed the book on the table. He gave a small wave to the brothers before walking up the plank.
"Kakashi Hakate" Itachi reported to the governor. Orochimaru nodded in commendment.
One by one, men began to sign the book and say goodbye. Itachi reported each man's name to Orochimaru.
"Subaku no Gaara and Subaku no Kankorou."
"Kiba Inuzuka"
"Genma Shiranui"
"Shikamaru Nara"
"Izumo Kamizuki"
This continued for several hours until the last spot was filled by Akimachi Chouji. As soon as he was on board, the men carried the table back on and Sasuke followed. He leaned against the rail watching the port grow smaller and smaller. He heard rustling next to him and looked up to see Itachi leaning next to him.
"Is this ok with you?"
Sasuke sighed. "Not really, no. Father only sent us on this journey so we can play nice with the governor and hopefully, get in good the Sandaime. Plus, he wants an Uchiha over in the new world. As a representative."
Itachi had said nothing through the entire tirade shook his head. "Do you think that maybe father sent us on this journey, so you would get out of that library?"
Sasuke snorted. "Why would he do that? I'm less of a nuisance in the library, then anywhere else."
Itachi sighed this time. "He thought maybe it was time for you to get out there and experience your own adventure instead of reading about other peoples."
"I don't want to have my own adventure."
"Why are you too scared to have one?"
"NO! I'm not scared to have one."
"Than what are you scared of?" Itachi started to walk away.
The wind picked up as Sasuke whispered his answer. Itachi watched as the wind carried off his brother's words. He shrugged and carried on, his time in Akatsuki taught him that nature had it's own way of thinking.
Maybe he wasn't ready to hear his brother's answer yet.

The wind carried the words as fast as it could over the ocean, heading towards the land. It had traveled for a long time, when it finally jumped into a grove of trees marking the start of the cove. The ship would reach the cove in about a week. Two at the most. The wind thanked the trees for helping him gain speed then asked if they knew where the person was that he was looking for, the trees didn't know. But , the river did. She told him where the person was and the wind quickly changed his course, thanking the river.

Naruto was laying on the bank of the river, listening to the splashes his friends were making when the wind blew over him, he let out a sigh, so the wind knew he felt it and then he heard a masculine voice say 'You, leaving me again'
"What?" He sat up looking around for whoever had said it.
"Naruto, are you ok?"
Naruto looked over at his concerned friends. "Yeah, I'm fine, Sakura-chan, Hinata. The wind just said something weird though." The girls walked to the bank and sat next to him.
"I wonder how far the wind had to travel to bring that message to you?"
"I want to know why it thought it had to bring it to me?"
Sakura leaned foreword. "What did the message say anyway?"
"You, leaving me again."
