Hello again! I'm posting a lot faster than I expected. Anyway, keep reviewing! Constructive sandwiches are parties for my imagination.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, I only own my OCs.

Chapter 2

As my eyes flickered open everything came rushing back to me. I winced at the flood of information and I sat up to look around. A muddy and blood crusted vest fell off as I rose to a sitting position. I began gazing around soaking in my surroundings.

There were trees everywhere and two people sitting by a fire, only their backs visible, and hushed voices keeping their words from being heard. The one on the left was an adult and he was in a black outfit with a familiar swirl on the shoulders. The other was a youth with an age ranging from nine to thirteen. He was pretty small, but he had an odd air of maturity and intelligence around him.

I slowly stood up and began walking over to them. I reached towards the adult's shoulder so I could give him a tap and draw his attention. My expectations were shot down immediately when I found a short sword creating a line of blood on my neck. His blood red eyes quickly calmed and he pulled the sword back and sheathed it. The two were suddenly asking me rapid fire questions and making sure I was okay.

"What's your name, kid?" the question came from the adult as he crouched in front of me with a smile, I couldn't smile back due to the large mix of emotions in his eyes.

"I don't know." I mentally facepalmed, "I mean, my name is Ziela." I internally sighed with relief.

How suspicious is saying "I don't know" to a question you obviously know? Also, why haven't you planned this out already? I mentally scolded myself.

What time did I have to plan? In case you weren't paying attention, we woke up on a freaking battlefield.

Cool off, I was talking about imagining being in a situation like this.

Oh, sorry.

I forgive you.

I finished my inner conversation and found they were both staring at me intently, and with worry. I raised an eyebrow and tilted my head, did I miss something important?

Yeah, idiot, they asked if you were okay.

"Are you okay?" the kid asked, moving his face inches to mine.

"I'm fine, how are you?" I tried to sound as cheerful and childish as possible.

"I-I'm fine, thank you."

Is it just me, or is his face red?

It's just you.

"So, how's the weather?"

"Cold."

"Sure is."

Another odd silence settled over us as we stared at each other, his face red, mine lifted in a polite grin.

"You two are odd ones, alright." the ninja dude said with a grin as he patted us on the head.

*~ (O.O) ~*

Who said I'm anti-social, huh?

Quit getting excited about your pathetic achievement, any normal kid could easily talk to a kid a bit older than them like that.

He's like, three years older than me.

No, he's like four or five years older than you.

How old is he?

I dunno, somewhere between nine and thirteen?

Then are you implying I'm four or five?

I'm not just implying, you are just four or five.

Huh?

I already said it, stop making me repeat myself, idiot.

But, I'm six?

No, you're not.

Wow, I must be in a new universe or something.

You are.

Okay, what's the universe called?

Naruto.

You'll have to provide proof to support that ridiculous answer.

You've seen plenty. Kunai nicked your shoulder, ninja, and the headband on that shinobi that saved you.

So? Some crazy cosplayers.

The swirl on his uniform shoulders and vest are the same from the show.

Still, cosplaying.

How is he jumping through trees carrying two kids?

Parkour expert!

How did he know how to treat your cuts?

He's also a doctor!

Fine. I give up. You may be a so-called genius, but you're one heck of an idiot.

Well you're just my brain, so aren't you a part of that idiot?

Silence.

It isn't silent if you just say the word.

Crickets chirping.

Still isn't working.

What disappears as soon as you call for it?

A cat.

Bzz-bzz.

Fine, silence?

Exactly.

Oh, shush.

I'm trying to.

You're giving me a headache.

Same here, idiot.

You just insulted yourself.

Marshmallows!

…

…

Huh?

Marshmallows!

Okay, just shush.

Aye, aye, cap'n.

As my longest self-conversation yet ended, I took notice of what I missed while I was talking to myself. The ninja dude was carrying the two of us on his back and we were moving pretty fast through the trees as something came into sight.

Jesus, you were right.

Wasn't that guy Spanish or something?

Who?

Jesus? (he-zeus)

Who is that?

Never mind.

"Welcome to Konoha, kids." Cheerfully said the guy carrying us.

[This line has been deleted due to inappropriate language.]

Haha, I figured you'd react like that.

You were right.

Whoever said I wasn't? Oh, right, you.

He landed on the ground and let us slide off of his back. I scratched my throat self-consciously as I slowly walked behind the guy who saved me. The kid grabbed my hand and comforted me-or himself-by squeezing it. We walked forward and were stopped abruptly at the gate.

"Who're you bringing into the city, Quin?" a voice made us all halt before we stepped over the line into the city.

The dude with the bandage over his nose stepped in front of us.

"I brought back survivors."

They both turned around to look at us (but it felt like they were only looking at me), their eyes were piercing and curious. I ducked behind the kid and peeked out at the two of them, honestly nervous. The guy who stopped us smiled and motioned for me to come forward. I looked up at the newly named Quin and went forward at his nod.

The guy crouched down and I stopped in front of him. He smiled and rubbed my head.

I wasn't really expecting that.

Same here.

I smiled back and stepped forward to follow as he motioned for me to come. As we walked through the town, he pretty much gave me a tour on what was what, where was what, and significant people that were out and walking around. I kind of just let his voice fade into the background as I gazed around finding things that were familiar from the show.

"So, how old are you, kiddo?" his voice yanked me out of my thinking and I looked up at him.

"I think I'm four." I answered with full honestly.

"You think?"

"I have amnesia." Okay, that one was a lie.

"I see. Do you want to stop by the hospital before we visit the Hokage?"

"We're going to see the Hokage?"

"I guess we're seeing the Hokage, then."

I smiled widely and followed him through the streets to reach the tower. When we reached it, the building was so much larger than it looked in the anime. I was getting more and more excited as we climbed the stairs. The dude left and Quin stepped forward to knock on the door.

"Come in." came from the other side.

Quin opened the door and stepped in followed by me and the kid. I caught my breath when I saw the four people waiting along with the Hokage. I stepped in and stood beside my two friends as I stared at them in awe. They were so cool in person, and it makes me so sad remembering what happens to them all.

"Who're the kids, Hokage-sama?" asked a certain yellow haired legend.

"Yes, who are the children, Quin?" asked the Hokage.

Words rule the planet, and reviews help my imagination.

A/N: So, I think this was mostly inner conversation. I changed one of the genres to humor because my siblings burst out laughing while reading it.

P.S. Can anyone guess who the people in the Hokage's office are? (c'mon it's not that hard.) Also, does anyone know why the inner conversations are important?
