"No, don't leave me!" I called out, why did they leave me, I'm only three, I can't defend myself. "Mommy, Daddy! Come Back!"
"August wake up!"
"No, please." the walls around me start to crumble, I hide in a cupboard. The whole earth is shaking.
"August, you're okay, wake up honey; you're having a bad dream." Someone called. I jerked awake and looked around my dimly lit room. I saw my adopted mother standing over me, a lamp in her hand, her eyes soft and gentle. "There you go, just a bad dream,"
"Thanks, mother." I said and yawned, the dream still fresh in my mind.
"You got to get up; the Konaha Ninja will be here soon." She said, standing up straight and putting the lamp down on the table beside my bed. She waked over to my closet and pulled out some clothes for me to wear on the trip. On the floor beside the closet was a small backpack that had the things I would be taking with me. There was a change of clothes and two pictures in it. The pictures were of my mother and father that I have now and of my mother and father before they left me. I was taking one more thing but I was going to wear it on the trip, I never took it off. It was a necklace that my birth mother had given me when I was three. It was made of silver and had an opal in the middle with diamonds and garnets. My father had I made for my birthday. It was a beautiful necklace; my birthstone in the middle surrounded my mother's and father's birthstones.
When my mother and father had left me on the terrible day, I had just gotten the necklace because my birthday was the day before. My mother had given birth to a baby boy, I didn't know what his name was, I wasn't allowed to go and visit my mother because I was not allowed in the village. My family lived out side of a village that my father was a Kage of, didn't even know what the name of it was. No one in the village knew about me except for my father former sensei. He came to visit every now and then and told my mother and father about his books that he writes; I remember that his name was Jiraiya. No one knew that I was even alive, except for my mother, father and Jiraiya, I was a secret and if anyone knew about me, my father would be ridiculed and would lose his credibility. My father would stay in the village over the week, but on weekends he would stay with my mother and I. The day that I was left alone the village had been attacked by a nine-tailed fox and my father had left to fight it. I was all alone, even after the village was safe, no one came to find me until the next day. I was sleeping in my safe spot when Jiraiya came and brought me to the family I have now.
So here I am now, 19 years old, and looking at my necklace and remembering my dream.
"August," My mother called me back to the real world, "Here you go," she said handing me some cloths. "Get dressed quick, they will be here soon." She said and left my room, closing the door behind her. I got dressed sadly, my mother and father weren't coming with me, this would be last time I would wake up in this room by my mother, this would be the last time I would see this room. After getting dressed I heard voices downstairs, 'they are here' I thought to myself. I took a deep breath and grabbed my backpack and hurried downstairs. I made it to the last step when I stopped and looked around the room. I saw I guy with silver hair and a crooked forehead protector with a swirly symbol that looked familiar, where had I seen it before? Anyway, he was reading a book; I couldn't see the title of it. There was another guy with black hair that reminded me of a ducks butts hair, leaning against the wall with his arms folded. There was one other person, besides my mother and father; he was talking to my mother and father. He had his long hair tied back into a pony tail but there was still some hair left out that formed curtains around his face. When I got to the bottom step he looked up at me, I saw that his eyes were red, 'he looks really good' I thought to myself.
"Hello August," He greeted, "My name is Itachi."
"Hello" greeted back and stepped off of the last step.
"That's Kakashi," He said pointing to the guy reading the book,
"Yo" Kakashi greeted, not looking up from his book.
"And that's Sasuke." Itachi finished, pointing at the guy with duck butt hair.
"Hn" Sasuke said, I just realized that his eyes were closed.
"Hello to you too," I said sarcastically.
"I was just telling your mother and father the plan, just so they know that you will be safe." Itachi told me.
"Do I get to know the plan?" I asked.
"Yes"
"YAY!"
"…"
"What can't I be happy?" I asked indigently.
"You do realize that this would be the last time you will see your mother and father?" Itachi asked, eyebrow raised.
"Yes"
"Then why are you happy?"
"I'm not happy on the inside."
"I see"
"So what's the plan?" I asked, changing the subject.
"We will go through the forest for a day when we will meet up with a few other ninjas, who will accompany us the rest of the way." Itachi explained.
"Fun"
"Should be"
I turned to my mother and father.
"I'm going to miss," I told them "Thanks for everything." And I hugged them.
"We will miss you too," My father whispered into my ear.
"Good luck, we will pray for you." My mother chocked out. "We love you."
"I love you too," And I released them. I smiled sadly at them and felt tears coming. I turned away form everyone to whip them away. I would cry later, later. I wanted to leave.
"Lets go" Itachi commanded. Sasuke stood up strait and walked out the door. Kakashi followed never once taking his nose out of his book.
"Good bye" I whispered to my parents on last time and left. Itachi said something to them and followed me out.
"August, on my back please." Itachi said kindly when we were outside.
"Okay" I whispered and clambered onto his back. As soon as I was securely on his back we were off, flying through the trees with Sasuke and Kakashi on either side of us. Kakashi had put his book away. The wind was rushing past my face when the tears started to come. I laid my head down onto Itachi's back and let them come; the tears being soaked into the back of Itachi's shirt.
"I'm sorry," I whispered to him, raising my head.
"For what?" He asked.
"I made your shirt all wet." I explained.
"Don't worry about it," He shrugged.
"I'm still sorry,"
"Well I forgive you."
"Thanks" I whispered and rested my head on his back again and closed my eyes. The wind kept rushing past us and the light against my closed eyes was fading and the wind was getting colder. I opened my eyes and saw that night had fallen and yet we were still moving.
"Hey Itachi?" I asked, getting his attention.
"Hmm?"
"Where are these other ninjas?"
"Don't worry, we are almost there." He told me.
"Okay," And I nestled my head into his back, I felt him sigh. We continued to fly through the trees for another ten minutes before we stopped.
"What's going on?" I asked, raising my head to look around. I couldn't see anything, BLAST!!!
"Shh!" Itachi scolded
"Fine," I whispered and stuck my tongue out at the back of his head. My eyes started to adjust to the darkness and I started to see the out line of trees as well as Sasuke and Kakashi. Both of them were standing very alert and looking around themselves quickly. I started to fidget; I didn't like this, we weren't moving and everyone seemed tense.
"August, stop moving," Itachi hissed.
"then tell me what's going on!" I hissed back.
"I can't,"
"Why not?" I asked forgetting to whisper.
"Because, if we talk it could attract unwanted attention" He growled. "Now stop moving, or I will make you!"
"Sir, yes Sir" I whispered sarcastically but I was quite and still. I glanced around the surrounding forest and my senses came more intone. I could see more, I could smell more (Itachi smells good) and I could hear more. As I looked I saw a flash of orange and felt Itachi's body relax under me. (I know that sounds really bad, sorry)
"Naruto, come out." Itachi called.
"Can we talk normal now?" I asked.
"Yes"
"YAY!"
"Ah man, I thought I was being sneaky." 'Naruto' said, coming out from the trees and rubbing the back of his head. The name 'Naruto' sounded familiar where had I heard it before?
"You guys too," Itachi called again.
Three more people and a dog came out of the trees. One of the people, a boy with one fang tooth and strange red things on his cheeks, was riding the dog. I was jealous, I wanted to ride the dog but all I got was Itachi, sad face. There was a girl with long black hair and light lavender eyes with no pupils. There was another guy in a green jumpsuit. AHHH!! The Green Jumpsuit of DOOOOOOOOMMM!!!!! RUN AWAY! I tried to get down from Itachi but I had no luck so I just hid my face in his hair which smells good. Itachi turned his head to look at me.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Make it go away." I whimpered.
"Make what go away?"
"The green jumpsuit person," I whispered.
"Wha-?" then he laughed and looked at the green jumpsuit. "Sorry August, I can't."
"Why not?" I whined.
"Because"
"Why?"
"Because I said so,"
"Why?"
"To protect you,"
"Why?"
"Because"
"Why?"
"August," He growled.
"Yes my dear?" I asked innocently.
"No"
"But-" I started but was stopped by the fact that everyone was looking at us, no wait, ther were looking at me.
"What?" I asked them.
The green jumpsuit person was pointing back and forward between Naruto and I. I looked at Naruto and saw why; we looked a lot alike, same eyes, same colour of hair, same skin tone, everything except, I was taller, had longer hair and I had boobs and I didn't have those weird lines on my face. The only people who didn't seem to notice this were Itachi and Kakashi, Even Sasuke looked mildly surprised and he's been traveling with me the whole day.
"Hey Naruto, How old are?" I asked
"16, why?" He asked.
"No reason," But I did some quick math in my head (Ow math, it makes my brain hurt.) My younger brother would be 16 now, but I didn't bring it up, I'll wait until I have more evidence.
"Who are you guys?" I asked the new comers.
"I'm Kiba and this is Akamaru." The guy on the dog said pointing to himself and then the dog who barked, Note to self: Pet dog later.
"I'm Rock Lee, may we be friends together in youthfulness." The green jumpsuit person said.
"I'm Hinata." The girls said in a quite voice.
"And I'm Naruto, and Hinata is my girlfriend." Naruto said proudly, causing Hinata to blush.
"Okay, I knew that your name was Naruto but I didn't know that Hinata was your girlfriend, that's so cute" I cooed as Hinata blushed a beeper red. If she got anymore red she would turn into a lobster. "Anyways, onwards and forwards." I commanded.
