Yeah, this'll be one of my shorter fics. Hell, I've got almost the whole thing planned out, and I wrote everything up to 4 in a notebook! I copied it onto the computer! All hail, boredom reigns!

Bright sunlight crept through the spotless window, crawling almost cautiously into the battered apartment. One by one dozens of shuriken and kunai were illuminated in the early-morning glow as it searched the small room. While the floor played home to so many weapons the occasional knickknacks, the room was devoid of anything personal, and retained a sterile quality that most would not be able to stand for even a few minutes of time.
After a minute or so of navigating the strange room, the rays of sunlight finally found their prize.
In the far corner of the room a relatively small youth felt the beams of light hit his eyes painfully. Too stiff to escape properly, the boy merely pressed his pale face more firmly in his bandaged arms. No to be deterred, the sun forced it's rays through the space, glaring incessantly into his retinas.
With a defeated sigh, the boy lifted his face from the strongly alcohol-scented cloth, dark brown eyes glancing listlessly around his home. After listening for the sounds of anyone else's breathing in the only other room, the bathroom, he forced himself to his feet with a series of painful sounding cracks. He needed to stop falling asleep sitting up in the corner. True, no one could sneak up on him there, but it really did hurt to wake up there.
He walked slowly over to the small mirror on his wall, the only decoration he had on the wall. Staring back at him was a boy of fifteen, with dark red hair that reached a little below his chin. Dark brown eyes searched the feminine face for anything off, but in finding nothing worse then usual, he shifted his gaze towards the window, then below to the floor where a note had appeared during his sleep.
He picked it up, eyes flitting over the front.
