The man with silver hair placed the lifeless girl onto the hospital bed, nurses were already cleaning up her injuries. The man just stared, his steely eye blinked every now and then. He had been informed earlier that day about the slaughtering of one of Konoha's most cherished clan, though he was not aloud to speak of it, he couldn't help wonder 'could she be…?' he shook his head. There was no way in all of earth, that one lone girl could have survived such a brutal attack. She was still a baby, she couldn't even defend herself.

"Hatake-san…" said one of the nurses.

"Hmm…" he mumbled, tearing his eye away from the girls dead body.

"Please, could you leave, so we can change her?" asked the nurse. He smiled at her, even though she was dead, they still respected her.

"Right" he said, nodding before walking out of the room. The nurse closed the door behind him.

"Kakashi-san" said a voice. He looked up, Kakashi quickly stood straight and bowed respectfully to the approaching elder.

"Hokage-sama" Kakashi said, his voice showing respect.

"I hear that you found a child" the Hokage said, his large white and red hat shadowing over his face. His white robes were clean and unsullied. "I've also heard that the child has passed on"

"Yes, sir" Kakashi said, remembering the face of the young girl. He didn't like looking at her face, it wasn't because she was ugly or anything, she was anything but that, even if she was dead. She was actually quite beautiful for such a young child. It was just sick thinking about who had killed the defenceless little girl.

"Well done, but by any chance, would you happen to know this child?" the Hokage asked, nodding to himself.

Kakashi thought back, looking through the many faces of children he'd seen, but he shook his head "no sir, do not know this child"

"Very well, then please, step aside so I can see this child for myself" the Hokage said.

"The nurses are-"

The door opened from behind Kakashi, making him stop mid-sentence and look back to see the nurse from before. "oh…" she gasped, bowing to the Hokage "…Hokage-sama"

"May I see this child for myself?" the Hokage asked.

The nurse bit her lip nervously "yes sir…" she mumbled, moving out of the way, but kept her head down as he shuffled passed her. The Hokage nodded to the nurse when he passed her. Kakashi followed behind the elderly man, shutting the door behind him.

When they were in, they seen two nurses around the girl, their backs turned to the Hokage and Kakashi. "It wont come off…" said the first nurse. They had already changed the lifeless body into a white gown, now it looked like they were trying to get something off from around her neck.

"Pull!" said the second nurse. But just as sudden, the nurse was shot back by what looked like lightning. The nurse hit the wall with a low thud, she gasped and dropped to the ground. "What was that?" she whispered, standing back up.

"I don't know, but I'm not even going to attempting to take it off" said the first nurse, spinning round on her heels. Her eyes widened when she seen the Hokage there. She bowed instantly "Hokage-sama!" she said.

The other nurse followed her lead "Hokage-sama"

"What might be the problem?" he asked.

The nurses glanced at each other "well…that girl, her necklace refuses to come off"

The Hokage chuckled "then leave it on…" he said, but he did wonder what could have caused such a power, maybe the necklace had some chakra stored inside it, that was the only possibility. "Leave us" he said, waving the two nurses off. They quickly bowed then scurried out the room. The Hokage walked over to the girls bed, looking down at her.

Kakashi walked up beside him "do you…know her?" he asked, looking down at the girls pale complexion.

The Hokage's eyes narrowed slightly "no…this girl is a mystery to me" he said, though he could help but think that he'd seen her somewhere. But she seemed alien to her, as if he'd never seen her, but he had. But where? He shook his head and turned around "I've got work to do, Kakashi, you're free to leave" he said, turning around and leaving.

Kakashi took one more glance at the girl before leaving.


Rin's P.O.V

The pain in my body was numb, I couldn't feel anything, but I could see the darkness. Where was I? I tried to scream out for help, but my voice wasn't there. I tried to cry, but I felt nothing. I wanted to open my eyes, but it felt like they were glued shut.

But it was then that I forced myself to open my eyes. My vision was blurry, but I could now see I was laid down on my back in a small room. The room was dark, but it had a light to it. I sat up slowly and looked around, my eyes landed on the window. The sun was setting. But where was I? I've never been in this room before.

I swung my small legs off the side of some white bed and jumped down, my knees shook from under me, making me fall to the ground, but I caught myself with my hands. I then pulled myself back into a standing position and walked toward the large white door, I opened it and walked out.


I had slowly walked out of the strange place. No one had seen me walk out, they didn't even look at me. What was this place? I'd never seen this strange place before…

I was walking down some sort of dirt road now. Large brown fences were on each side of me. I could see the roofs of houses, but I was so small. I could barely make out anything else.

Such a strange place. Where was I? Is this my home? Where is home? I looked from side to side, but I could only make out the roofs of houses, I couldn't see beyond that though. I looked straight ahead, there was a forest of some sort up ahead.


No one's P.O.V

The small girl walked aimlessly though the forest, amazed by the tall trees and the odd and different flower she would pass. "Pretty…" she says, walking over to a small white flower. But there was only one white flower, glistening in the setting sun light. She bent down beside it. Her hand reaching out to it.

But she stops, the sound of whizzing echoed in her ears. She stands up, her dark blue eyes going hazy. She turns round, a kunai is aimed at her.
