Yes! 2nd Chapter up..
Please read and review...so yeah ^^
The stars were already peeping through the navy blue shadings of the sky. Each one, flickering as if they we're playing a game of peek-a-boo. As the sun made its escape from the horizon, the crescent moon came to claim its spot in the night sky, shimmering as its light grew to its maximum. The night sky, a spectator to the present and upcoming events.
Silence dominated the atmosphere; who was going to break it first. Naruto arose from the ground, eyes still on the stranger that stood before him. Someone, who has been in his company ever since he somehow got to this unknown place. 'Who is this guy? I need to know.'
He raised his hand, his thumb landing in the middle of his chest, "I am Naruto Uzumaki."
From his chest, Naruto raised his hand to his headband, "I am a ninja of Konoha, the village hidden in the leaves, my home."
"A ninja! Are you sure about that?" Gray smirked.
"OF COURSE I AM. WHO ARE YOU SUPPOSED TO BE, SOME STRIPPER?" Naruto protested.
"STRIPPER? YOU BETTER WATCH IT BEFORE I FREEZE YOUR MOUTH SHUT!
"Freeze?"
"Well, I guess it's my turn for introductions. The name's Gray Fullbuster. I'm a mage from Fairy Tail."
"Fairy? So, do you grow wings and fly?" Naruto beamed with a hint of curiosity in his voice.
"No you idiot, it's the name of my guild. I use ice make magic….
"Magic? So, can you pull a rabbit out of a hat?"
"Why do I get the feeling that you do not understand this?" Gray sighed almost ready to give up.
"Maybe you should do a demonstration. You show me your abilities and I will show you mine. That way if anything shows up as a threat, we can defeat it without any problems."
"Fair enough," Gray nodded, "After all, we both have similar goals."
Time was passing by slowly, as the two boys ventured deeper into the wilderness; both looking for their friends and a way to return to their homes while exchanging questions and answers.
"Hey Naruto, do you have any clue on how you got here? Gray questioned, continuing to walk while looking ahead.
"Not really," lifting a finger to his chin, Naruto began searching through his memory for what really happened a few hours ago.
"Hmmm….I remember, I remember eating Ichiraku Ramen on a night like this," Naruto gazed up at the sky. "After, I went home, tired after a mission and repairs to some parts of the village. Hmmm…then I went to sleep. The next thing I know, I woke up in this place."
"I see," Gray lowered his voice to a mere whisper.
"What about you?" Naruto shifted his view to the path that laid before them, eager for an answer.
"The last thing I remember was going to sleep with Lucy, Nats…
"Lucy? Is she your girlfriend…
"NO, SHE'S NOT!" Gray quickly replied, a light shade of red coloring his cheeks, "Why are you asking me things like that?"
"But didn't you just say you remember going to sleep with Lucy?" Naruto chuckled.
"YOU DIDN'T LET ME FINISH!" Gray yelled, feeling a little tense.
"Oh…"
"Anyway, as I was saying, the last thing I remember was going ALONG with Lucy, Natsu and Erza."
"So…
"It was a sleepover," Gray quickly blurted out. The mage exhaled, "Then I found myself here this morning, BEING CHASED BY SOME….THING and YOU ALONG WITH IT. What did you do?"
"Nothing!" The only reason I woke up so early this morning was that, I thought it was an earthquake. But instead, I found myself being chased by some gigantic animal." Naruto stated in his defense.
"So, is this some kind of a dream?" Gray whispered to himself.
The two resumed their search through the forest.
"If Sakura was here…
"Sakura?"
"Oh, she's…
"I don't care to know."
Naruto stopped just for a few seconds, "You're so cold-hearted," he continued walking, "I guess that's to be expected from an ICE MAGE."
"Shut up," Gray words followed after.
After much walking, the two had no choice but to end their search. On reaching a clearing, something unexpected greeted them. The moon's light beating down on the grass, revealing everything under its light. Everything except one. Upon a rock sat a silhouette of a person. Upon closer inspection, Naruto could not believe his eyes. The blonde stood frozen to the spot, eyes wide and glued to this person, whose image reflected in his glistening eyes. In front of the moonlight, his presence casting shadows on both Naruto and Gray; shadows that gripped Naruto by the throat. Just one word made it out from his lips, a whisper that echoed through the air,… "Sasuke….."
"..Watching me, wanting me
I can feel you pull me down
Fearing you, loving you
I won't let you pull me down.."
