A/N: Peace y'all! So here's the second chapter, and hopefully I'll be uploading the third one after the exams. I don't have a lot of writing time this month 'cause of all the end-of-year stress.
So yeah.
Uhmm...ONTO THE STORY!
Oh yeah, I don't own Naruto. Trust me, if I did, none of the Akatsuki would've died.
When Wit awoke, the first thing she noticed was that Laura was still in her hands.
Seriously. Not the fact that she was blindfolded and contained in a small room, but the fact that she was still holding a puppy.
Quite the observer, isn't she?
The second thing she noticed was that she was sitting on something dry, so she must be inside somewhere.
Again, not very observant.
The third thing Wit noticed was that she was blindfolded.
Finally. She finally noticed that.
Then Wit heard voices from somewhere nearby. Laura whimpered in her hands, and since Wit's hands weren't tied she had the freedom to stroke her puppy.
"I still think she shouldn't have been allowed the liberty to move about like that. All we did was lock her up and put a blindfold on her," a voice, a female voice, said.
"Well she doesn't have a developed chakra network. In fact, it doesn't look like she's ever tried to use chakra whatsoever," another voice, this time masculine, replied.
"She could just be a shinobi who can't use chakra, like Lee," the female voice said again.
There was a moment of silence, and Wit blinked. She wondered if they knew she was awake. She also wondered who these people were, and what 'chakra' was, and why they'd tied her up, and why they'd kidnapped her. She didn't take kindly to the kidnapping part, or the fact that she couldn't see who these two were.
"Uhm, hello?" Wit said, breaking the silence. "Who's there? What is this place?"
More silence ensued, and for a moment Wit wondered if saying something was the best idea. Then, however, she heard footsteps coming towards her, and suddenly her blindfold was gone.
She blinked at the sudden light, and looked up to see a girl about her age standing over her. The girl's hair was a rich brown and up in two small buns. There was some kind of headband on her forehead, with a weird symbol on it, and her white shirt and pale maroon pants reminded Wit of something Japanese.
Wit looked around the room, but didn't see anything aside from stone wall and a door. In the doorway, a boy about the same age as well stood. He had very long dark brown hair that was kept in a loose ponytail, and a headband with the same symbol on it as the girl did. His eyes were...well, Wit had never seen eyes like that before. They were a pale cream color, and seemed to have no pupil. His loose white clothing reminded Wit of something Japanese, like the girl's.
"Stop staring at me," The boy said suddenly, and Wit jumped. She looked from the boy to the girl, for some reason fearing them before she even knew who they were.
Wit gulped, then asked a question. "W-who are you?" She whimpered. "Where a-am I?"
"The Village Hidden in the Leaves," The girl replied. "I'm TenTen, and this is my teammate, Neji."
Wit blinked, and Laura squirmed around in her hands so that the puppy was facing the two strangers. Laura growled at them softly.
"V-Village Hidden in the Leaves?" Wit echoed. "I've never heard of it."
The boy called Neji raised his eyebrows in a disbelieving fashion. "Then why were you found at the gates of our village?"
Wit frowned. "I was?"
"Yes."
"What was I doing?"
"Napping, apparently."
"Oh."
. . . .
"Wait a second!" Wit exclaimed, suddenly remembering something. "I was knocked out! You two knocked me out! I was just sitting there in the park, and you two knocked me out!"
Apparently, Wit just couldn't get over the fact that someone had made her unconscious.
"We didn't do that," The girl TenTen said. "You were already unconscious when we found you. Our Hokage told us to put you here, and to find out if you were a shinobi or not. Neji used his Byakugan and said that you don't have a developed chakra network, so we didn't think that you were much of a threat."
Wit, by this point, was very confused. "Chakra network?" She echoed once more what they said. "Shinobi? Byakugan? Hokage? What does this all mean?"
The two other teens exchanged a glance, and Wit continued to stroke Laura's head worryingly. Then TenTen and Neji turned and left the room, closing the door behind them.
After Wit had heard their footsteps fade away, she considered escaping. However, before she could summon up the courage to do such a thing, she reminded herself that she had no idea where she was, or where to go after she had gotten past the door.
Suddenly, an idea came to mind, and Wit reached in her pocket for something. Feeling the smooth surface, her heart leaped for joy and pulled out her cell phone. She flipped it around to look at the screen, and her spirits took a plunge once more. There was no reception for one thing, and for another there was five percent of her battery left. Nope, there was definitely no way she was going to be able to call anyone to get her out of here.
Suddenly Wit's imprisonment went from bad to worse.
A/N: Ta-daa! Second chapter, in the bag! YESH!
So happy! *tears of joy* I actually finished a second chapter for once!
And yes, it was short as Hell, but that's just how I roll right now. I'm too lazy to write anything longer.
Yeah.
BYYE! ^^
