Simply Real

Chapter 1: Dream

"Huh where am I?" Naruto asked himself as he looked around. He couldn't see anything except the ground he was standing on. Mist was in the air and was covering everything. The mist suddenly faded away as Naruto's surroundings became much clearer.

He looked around. He was apparently on a rocky hill for there were huge boulders near but there was a river nearby and flowers were growing by the river. A river on a rocky hill was an unusual geographical feature as far as he knew. So he thought 'Where am I?'

Then his head shot up as he heard a humming. A person was humming a melody. He thought 'Maybe if I sneak up on this person, I can get some answers about this place' so he followed the humming sound as he slowly walked up the path in front of him, cautious not to make any sounds.

Then he found himself staring at a young girl around the same age as him, sitting on a flat rock while kicking her feet into the waters. She was wearing a plain, simple light blue sundress that went up to her knees and she had long black wavy hair that went up to her waist. Naruto was uncertain if he should approach her and quietly said "Um." But she heard him loud and clear. Then to Naruto's surprise, she giggled and turned her head towards Naruto's face. Naruto gasped as he saw her face, she was really pretty with her pale ivory skin and large emerald eyes. She looked like a princess. Attached to her hair was a tied long flowing red ribbon. "What's the matter? Come closer," she said, patting the rock next to her "I don't bite." She smiled. Naruto was uncertain about what he should do. "Well? Aren't you going to sit?" She asked. "I'm not dangerous and I'm defenseless." She put her hands up to prove her point, that she had no weapons and was truly defenseless.

Naruto then decided she was harmless and if he was going to get some answers, he had to befriend her. So he sat down next to her on the flat rock.

Naruto then said "Um." He didn't know what to say, where to begin. She giggled. "What's the matter? Talk! Oh I know. What's your name?"

"Naruto Uzumaki and I'm going to be the next Hokage," Naruto replied happily while making the same stupid grin he'd always put on. She tilted her head when he said the word Hokage and smiled back when he grinned.

"Hmm, Naruto. That's a nice name," she said.

"What's yours?" Naruto asked.

The girl looks down at her feet and sadly said "I don't know, I don't think I have a name." Naruto looked surprised.

"What! No name? That can't be because if you don't have a name then what do people call you?" Naruto eagerly asked, curious to find out the answer.

"People? I don't know. I've never been anywhere near people. At least I don't think I have," she whispered ghostly.

"Then what do your parents call you?"

"Parents? What's that?" Naruto looked surprise.

"You know, the people who raised you." The girl titled her head in confusion "You know the people that do that to make you, like they do in one of Ero-Sennin's book." Naruto's face cringe in disgust as he said this and shivered in remembrance of the day he accidentally read one and how he managed to ghostwrite one. The girl still didn't know what he was talking about but giggled at his display and said "You don't have to say it if it's that bad and to answer your question I don't have one, At least I don't think I have one."

"No one?" Naruto worded breathlessly. The girl shook her head. "No."

"I can't remember anything and I've never met anyone except you ever since I woke up."

"Woke up?"

"Yes," she stood up and got off the rock. She walked up to a tree as she closed her eyes and placed the palm of her hand on the tree "I just woke up and found myself here. I don't have any memories of before and I don't know where I am."

'Well I guess I can't find out any answers from her. It's sad she can't remember who she is' Naruto thought sympathetically.

The girl then turned to face Naruto as she opened her eyes and removed her hand from the tree.

"Hey, Naruto." She said gently as her emerald eyes glistened under the sun while her face showed no expression except a tint of hope in her eyes.

"Yea."

"Can I ask a favor from-" Suddenly she dropped down to her knees and desperately clutched her arms. Naruto ran up to her and held her shoulders as he faced her. She was breathing heavily while her face looks tired, cringed up and wary as if fighting a big struggle inside herself. Her eyes were screwed shut.

"URAGHHHHH!!" she cried out in pain.

"Hey are you okay? Do you need a medic-nin?"

The girl shook her head "no" and shooed Naruto away. He stood up and walked only a few centimeters away from her just in case she did need help. The girl grabbed the tree and tried to help herself up. She looked at Naruto and said "Please hide now!"

"Huh? What? Why?"

"Please don't ask, just hide now!" she urged him eagerly. Naruto was uncertain if he should do that. She was in pain and he couldn't just leave her like this. Then an idea popped up in his head, which doesn't happen a lot. He grabbed the girl's hand and began dragging her to the nearest big boulder. The girl was reluctant to go and tried to pull back her hand but Naruto had a strong grip on her hand so Naruto continued dragging her and after a few seconds, quit struggling and willing went with Naruto to his destination: the big boulder.

They then hid behind the boulder. Then the girl placed both her palms on the center of the rock. Naruto gasped. This day was full of surprises. The girl was releasing intense charka through her palms; charka so intense that he could see the light blue color of it. The charka was released from her palms to the rock, when suddenly a barrier was formed around them. This barrier was invisible but he could felt the amount of charka used to create this perfect Jonin level barrier and she was still feeding this barrier more of her charka. It was like she has an endless supply of chakra but what surprised him even more was the fact the barrier was as hard as steel and that the girl was petite she may seem manages to make one and even hold up the barrier.

The air was however shimmered with power as Naruto felt the girl's aura tingling and tickling at his skin and with that Naruto knew the girl had a strong aura, so strong that Naruto could almost suffocate from it. The girl obviously didn't know how to conceal her power. Naruto noticed since her aura was flaring out. "Who is this girl?" Naruto thought to himself while staring admirably at the spectacular deed she just did with his mouth agape.

Suddenly Naruto heard a rustle and a person speaking behind the rock. He was curious so he turned his head sideways to look over the rock to catch a sneak peek. He almost gasped at what he saw but the girl quickly covered his mouth with her hand before he could make any sound.

Over the rock was a woman in a light pink kimono with yellow star-shaped flowers pattern prints on it and had a light green obi. Her hair was in a tight bun but her bangs in the front showed. Naruto had wondered if she was a princess or someone of high status because she looked so regal, but the unusual thing was that she had a katana at her waist tied in with the obi and that behind her was a group of four missing-nins from different villages that looked very sinister and diabolical yet the woman still show no emotion. Even her sapphire eyes showed no fear and she looked generally calm even with the missing-nins around.

The woman then turned around to face the missing-nins and said in a strict tone "Listen up! Search the area for the girl." Naruto glanced at his hiding buddy, the girl, for a moment, then tuned in into the conversation again "If she's not found, then you know what happens," she said in a dark tone with a strange gleam in her eyes. They all nodded and ran off in different directions in a flash. They came back in 10 minutes looking exhausted from searching the area and from the looks of it, this was a large area.

A big man wearing a long dark cloak over his clothes stepped up to tell a pissed off woman about the news. "Well, where is she?" she yelled at them.

"Well, we can't seem to find her," he mumbled but she heard it loud and clear. "WHAT!" she screams "Incompetent idiots can't rely on them." Then a strange gleam made its way onto her eyes.

"Well then you do know what will happen right?" she said evilly. The man in front of her eye's widen and franticly said "No wait-" He didn't get to finish his sentence because the woman took out her katana and sliced the man down in half in a swift moment while smiling, then turn to the others.

The others knew she was going to kill them next, so they did the only thing they could do to survive: run. They all ran as fast as the wind to escape from her but before they could get anywhere far the woman smirked, took a step forward and disappeared only to reappear a second later in front of them. Before any of them could do anything she took her katana and stabbed them to death. It all happened so quickly, like in a blur. They screamed a scream that pierced the sky and land, hurt Naruto's ear and made the girl wince slightly at the sound before dying slowly. The woman then looked at her katana that was covered in the men's blood and licked the blood off and looked like she was savoring it. Naruto stood there looking at what just happened and was so appalled he gasped so loudly that it could even wake up the dead. The woman, noticing the gasp, turned around and faced the rock, feeling the sound was coming from there but when she looked at the rock she saw nothing. She dismissed it and began walking away. Naruto had quickly hid himself behind the rock again when he saw the woman's head turn around and could feel her cold eyes on him, on the rock. He couldn't believe what he just saw and breathed in heavily but was also excited knowing this was going to be a great adventure. However he was shivering and what got him shivering were the woman's blue eyes; it was now tainted with a hint of a red hue and made her look so bloodthirsty back then.

"Ugh," the girl said as she collapsed onto the grass, probably tired from holding the barrier so long. Naruto went to help her up and asked "Hey, who was that? Those people?" The girl lowered her head and softly said "I'm sorry, I don't know but I feel it in here," she pointed to her heart, "that they're very dangerous." Naruto wanted a better answer but left it at that. The girl lifted her head and looked straight on ahead then turned to Naruto and said "I'm sorry; I have to leave but please meet me here tomorrow." She looked at him with so much hope and eagerness that he couldn't say no and said "Ok." She then walked away and stopped for a moment to turn around and look at him with an intense gaze and ghostly said "Please don't die." Then she ran off. Naruto was dumbfounded and couldn't believe everything that happened today but the weird thing was, other than the message she gave him, that her eyes were holding no emotions like she was a doll with those glassy eyes that did nothing but stare at you. But Naruto left it at that and walked away but then accidentally walked off a cliff because he wasn't watching his step and screamed, "AHHHHHHHH! Why didn't I notice the cliff?!"

He opened his eyes and sat right up on his bed. He looked around his room and couldn't believe the dream he had. He didn't know if it was real or not. But one thing for sure was that he wanted to find out. Deciding to think about it tomorrow, he placed his head on his pillow and drifted off to sleep.

Sorry no NaruHina fluff yet. But I assure you there will be in the next chapter and to tell you something the girl is NOT going to be paired up with Naruto, she's only giggling around him cause he's funny and she's trying to be his friend. The real reason why she befriends him is going to be in the next or third chapters. That is if I write it up…if I have reviews. Anyways thanks for reading. Until next time. Sayonara! 3.
