It's late at night. Naruto's footsteps echoed through the hallways at his job. He's a scientist at a chemical testing lab. This lab is the testing ground for many unstable chemicals that need to be perfected. It's the biggest testing lab in miles. Everyone knew about it. There were many people not to pleased about the chemical testing that's going on in there. The owner of this testing lab is Orochimaru.

Naruto was on his nightly check up before he goes home. He had to make sure everything was alright before he left. These chemicals had to be preciously taken care of no matter what. He reached into his pocket to grab a walkie-talkie, pressing the button on the side of it before he started to talk.

"Hey Sasuke? Is everything on your side alright?" Naruto let go of the button waiting for an answer back. Sasuke is one of Naruto's good friends. When they first met they never originally got along, but as time went by their friendship was unbreakable.

"Yeah... Everything is alright. We can get going now. Meet me at the entrance?" Sasuke's voice slowly disappeared from the transceiver.

Naruto pressed the button to answer Sasuke. As he pressed the button there was a crash and bang. His body froze in place not aware of what the noise could of been. He was tempted to not check the noise out and just call the police. He began to talk to himself in his head "A possible burglar? Couldn't be, the alarm would of went off." His finger left the button on the walkie-talkie.

"Naruto... Is there something wrong? You pressed the button and didn't say anything."

"Ugh, Yeah. I'm fine, don't worry." As he spoke to Sasuke, his body started to move forward towards the noise.

"Are you going to meet me at the entrance?"

"Just give me a minute. I have to check something out. I heard this noise."

"A noise? You idiot! Don't go check it out alone. Wait till I get there!"

They were going back and worth in conversation on the transceivers. Sasuke trying to convince Naruto not to go alone. As Naruto got closer to the noise, he started to hear weepings. Someone is crying. Someone, but who? This is madness. Who the hell could be in here a this hour? Everything is locked off. It's impossible for anyone to get in here without triggering the security alarms.

"I'll be alright! Don't worry. I'm already half way there." Naruto gave a small smile as if Sasuke could see it.

"...sigh..." A sign came from the walkie-talkie from Sasuke's end. There was no stopping Naruto and he knew that.

Naruto put the walkie-talkie back into his lab coat pocket and walked farther. The hallways was starting to get darker. There was no time for him to look for the switches to turn the lights up. Plus he didn't want to scare away whoever this person is. Reaching his hand back into his pocket, he grabbed his small flashlight that was attached to his key chain.

He moved the flashlight's light around the darkened hallway. As the flashlight's light hit the ground he seen long pink strands of something. Naruto reached down and grabbed a few strands of this pink stuff.

"Is this hair?" His fingers rubbed together to confirm it was hair. "Pink hair? Crying? Crashing and bangs? What the hell is going on?!" Naruto thought to himself. The weeping was getting louder and louder. There was more strands of pink hair. He decided to follow this trail of hair. The trail led him to an another hallway. A hallway Naruto never knew about.

He brought his flashlight up. As he did there was someone at the end of the hallway on the floor. Naruto pressed his body against the wall and slowly inched towards this "person". The weeping was extremely loud. The closer he got the more he could see. This person has pink hair. It also looked like the person has in a white hospital robe.

Naruto was at the end of the hallway. Close enough to the crying person. From staring at the back of the person he could tell it was a girl. What is she doing in a place like this? How did she get in here?

"H-Hey you?" She continued to sit there and whimper. Naruto stared at her for a few moments. "If she was hostile she would of attacked me by now." He slowly walked behind her and leaned down. Pressing his hand against her shoulder, she slightly jumped, but that didn't stop her from crying. "Don't cry. It's okay."

The whimpers continued. She must really scared to continue to cry like this. Naruto had no idea what to do. He turned her body towards him. Gently he placed his thumb and index finger against her chin, lifting her head up slowly.

His eyes widened. This girl is beautiful. Her eyes are a beautiful green color and her skin was slightly pale. Where could of this girl come from? She stared straight into Naruto's eyes. Her hand came up and pressed against Naruto's face. Her soft hands rubbed against his cheek, but her hands were shaking. She smiled slightly with her hands against his cheek.

"What's your name? Who are you?" The girl didn't reply to the questions Naruto asked of her.

"Hey Naruto? Are you alright? You've been quiet for awhile. I hope you didn't get eaten or something." Sasuke's voice busted through the transceiver. His voice startled Naruto.

"Yeah.. Yeah. I'm fine."

"Did you find what was making those noises?"

"I-I.." As Naruto went to tell Sasuke of his discovery. The girl pressed her head against Naruto's chest and snuggled up against him. It was like she was listening to his heartbeat. She was so comfortable around him and she just met him. He started to think to himself. "Should I tell Sasuke I found her? What would he do? I can't just leave her here alone."

"What's wrong with you? What did you find?"

"It was a rat. A rat got into the building and knocked over some boxes." He made the choice to lie to Sasuke.

"A rat?"

"Yes. A rat.. "

"Hm, Alright. Anyways are you going to meet me up front or what?"

"Ugh, No. I have to finish up some paperwork that I forgot about. You can go ahead without me."

"Fine then. See you tomorrow."

"Bye Sasuke."

He waited a hour or so. He wanted to make sure Sasuke was gone from the building.

"Now I have to deal with you.. " Naruto looked down at the pink haired beauty that was still pressed against his chest. He grabbed her hands and slowly started to stand up. Her eyes opened as he stood up and she moved with him." I have to get you out of here." Naruto held onto her hand gently. He started to lead her. Naruto had no idea where is was going to take her. They made their way out the building.

He led her to his car. Quickly he opened the car door and made her get in. He rushed over to the drivers side of the car and got in. When he looked over to the girl, she looked as if she was excited. It's like she never seen a car before or came in contact with many people. Her hands were touching everything.

"Hey! Stop that!" She quickly placed her hands into her lap and lowered her head. "You're going to be a handful. I can tell... Now tell me your name?"

There was a strong silence. She wasn't saying anything.

"You don't know how to talk do you? I bet you don't have a name neither." Naruto let out a sigh and dragged his hands against his face. He tilted his head towards her. His ran traveled over to her. He ran his fingers through her hair and smiled at her. "Your name.. Your name will be Sakura. I think it fits you. Your hair reminds me of cherry blossoms."

Sakura. Sakura is her name now. A beautiful name for a beautiful girl. Sakura turned her head towards Naruto and smiled. It seem like she liked the name a lot. Naruto started the car and drove out the parking lot. He decided he was going to bring her to his house. As he drove to his house Naruto tried to made small conversation with Sakura. Forgetting she wouldn't speak back.

"Where did you come from? How did you even get inside of the building? Nothing about this makes any sense, but I'll figure it out. One way or an another. For the time being you'll be staying with me. When we get home, there are some rules you have to follow alright?" He kept his eyes on the road. Suddenly Sakura plugged over towards Naruto and started to hug him tightly.

"Hey! Sakura! You can't hug me while I'm driving!" Naruto lost control of the stirring-wheel for 2.5 seconds. He didn't crash, but Sakura stayed clanged on to him tightly.

"What have I gotten myself into.."
