The cold. The darkness. The wind.
It surrounded him completely as he lay silently on the freezing dirt and cobble floor of the forest. He saw everything around him, the trees with branches that were reaching out; trying there hardest to pull the light over the darkness that lay over him and the flower, the only flower in the forest and the boy has chosen to lay by it. The place he lay, he knew it was safe. His home where no one went. For a year not even a single body had emerged from the trees that surrounded him. Silently and weakly he lay on the floor, hardly being able to move this small pale body. Even his normally bouncy yellow hair had gone lifeless. As he lay and slowly started to close his sky blue eyes and drift off. His time had been served as his eyes completely closed.
A young boy of about five was watching his Father train in that same Forest on that night.
The boy has scruffy brown hair and his checks glowed red as he enjoyed his night with his Father, his red eyes light up as he ran towards his Father.
"Abrin" The boy automatically stopped in front of his Father who had Hair as Black as coal hidden within a bandana with a mark on the front, his eyes were also red and he looked down at his son, Abrin.
"Dad" Abrin whispered "I feel strange, can i have a walk round?"
Abrin's Father took a second and think and then replied
"Yes, but if anything is out there call me straight away"
Abrin slowly walked out of his Fathers sight as in the corner of his eye a flower appeared.
He stopped turned his head towards this flower. Its stem was light green like grass at the beginning of spring but the petals on the flower were like the bottom of the ocean with a deep blue colour.
Suddenly Abrin's feet started to walk, then to jog and before he knew he was running straight towards the flower. He reached the flower. He came to a halt. He looked down.
"DAD, DAD!" He yelled as he stared at a boy who lay lifelessly on the ground. The boy looked the same age as Abrin but his body was pale and lifeless.
"Abrin, Are you ok?" Abrin's Father said just before he saw the lifeless body on the floor.
"Quickly, Get on my back Abrin. Now" Abrin's Father shouted as he picked up the lifeless body "We need to get back to the village and get this boy to the hospital."
Abrin's Father ran with tremendous speed through the Forest and through the village, Abrin could hardly see the landscape. Then they stopped. The white hospital stood in front of them. Abrin and his Father hurried in with the boy.
"Please help us!" Abrin shouted through the empty Hospital corridor just before two ladies ran out with the same item as Abrin's Father but on a headband.
"Chizuko, Ayame!" Abrin's Father yelled "Help this boy; you have the medical Nin-Jutsu!"
"Ok, Sasuke! Bring him in here!" The two replied.
Chizuko had long light brown hair and blue eyes, whilst Ayame had dark brown hair and green eyes.
The four of them ran into a medical room with Sasuke carrying the boy and placing him gently on a bed.
"He's not breathing!" Ayame cried as she placed thumb on the left wrist of the body. "We need to work together."
Ayame and Chizuko both placed a hand on the chest of the young boy and colour started to slowly pour back into the boy's face and body.
"I think he should be ok now" Chizuko sighed in relief "But he looks strongly familiar, that hair and those eyes..."
"Dad, can he stay with us tonight?" Abrin asked "Please!"
Sasuke looked down at the boy who lay on the hospital bed and took pity on him.
"Well he will need some were to stay and I'm guessing he will need food in the morning as well so as long as he can stay in your room then ok"
Abrin nodded and watched Sasuke carefully pick up the boy.
"Come on now Abrin." Sasuke said "You need to get your sleep"
