Silence Chapter 2
You know, now that I think about it, I really should be more cautious when doing things. I think as I am being dragged away to a tall red building. I was walking through the forest and I come upon a village, a big one at that. And I try and walk in and these two guys start blabbing about 'threat to village' 'needing an ID' blah blah. So when I ran past them, they chased me and eventually caught me. So, now here we are, in the hallway outside these giant doors.
"Hokage-sama, can we come in?" Asked one of the two men.
"Come in." A gruff voice is heard from the other side. Won't that we walk in and I am placed in front of an old man with a pipe.
"This girl was trying to infiltrate the village, Hokage-sama." I snort at his statement.
"If I was trying to infiltrate why would I walk up to you in the first place, I just wanted to get some directions and some food!"
"Hmmm, so then... Where would you like directions to?" Says the Hokage, ignoring the protest of from the two men, about an enemy spy.
"Well you see, I kind of just woke up in some abandoned shack, and I can't remember anything really about where I came from, so I was hoping someone could, you know fill me in on where I am..." I fade off.
"I see... You two are dismissed I wish to speak to her privately." The two walk out disappointed, as if wanting a pat on the head for their good work.
"I want to make you an offer..." He states breathing into his pipe.
"I want you to tell me what you remember, along with a test of ability if you choose to except my next offer... In return for what you will give me, I would like to give you a home in our village here, The Village Hidden in the Leaves, Konoha. The test would be to see if you could serve as a ninja here, or live a civilian life, which that is if you choose to do so..." I stare at him and wonder what to do. I know it seems obvious, where is a 12 year old girl, with no memory going to get a better offer than in one of the 5 great nations, The Hidden Leaf Village. With my shirt mental argument over I look up at the Hokage.
"I accept. Thank you very much for such a kind offer. I really am grateful. But, might I ask something?" I question warily.
"What would that be child?"
"Why would you let me come here, I mean, I could be an enemy or-"
"Are you an enemy?"
"No! I just meant-"
"I know. You look like someone that I knew... I guess that's the reason I decided to give you a chance."
