A small girl with long black hair sat on the wet pavement. Her little, blue dressed was blood stained, and her hands were firmly hugging her knees. Rain poured down from the heavens, and yet her eye's never left the ground; Staring with no emotion. Rain began to build up on the roof above where the girl sat. It had been raining for over two days, and everyone in the hidden leaf village was just about sick of it. The streets were bare except for a few people running for shelter from the rain. Yet, none of them paid any attention the little girl. However, she still sat there, never taking her eyes off the ground.
SPLASH!
The water spilled from the gutter, spilling all over the girl. Suddenly, movement exploded from her. She took her hands from her knees, and placed them in her lap. She lifted her head, emotion suddenly showing in her eyes. She blinked looking back and fourth down the street. The moon was high in the sky; she had been sitting on that street corner for about a day and half. And the outburst of water had finally snapped her from her trance. Her bottom lip began to quiver as water filled her eyes. She took in deep breathes, one at a time; counting trying to calm herself.

Seven…
Her small little heart thumped in her chest, as the tears collected at the edges of her eyes. She couldn't hold it in any longer. Her frail body shook, as she screamed, the tears streaming down her cheeks. Her crying went on late into the night, by the time she had stopped the morning sun began to peek from the forest tree tops.
"Tough night?"
The girl jumped a little, her fragile heart pounding in her chest as she looked up at the tall man standing in front of her. The man was in his 20's with curly blonde hair sitting firmly on his head. He had light blue eyes, that showed through his bangs. The girl's bottom lip quivered, as her purple eye's turned large into saucers. The man's eye's widened as he noticed the blood stains on her clothes. "O-oh my god! Are you alright?! What happened?!" The man managed to sputter out, as he took a step closer to her.
"S-stay away!" the girl screamed her voice hoarse from her lack of talking. The man looked confused, as he stepped closer to her.
"Hey… I'm not going to-"
The girl's hands suddenly flew to her temples, clutching her head. "Please!" she pleaded, her face twisted with pain, "Don't hurt me!"
The man blinked, looking shocked. "Hey…" he took slow steps toward the trembling girl, and placed his hand on her shoulder. "I promise I won't hurt you…" The girl blinked, startled by his kindness. Tears gathered in her eyes. She began to cry again, hugging the man tightly. The man looked confused, and surprised. However, he smiled kindly, and returned the tender hug. Who was this little girl? The man wondered to himself.
That little girl was me, Akahana Dainichi.
