Hey everyone! Chapter two! Woot woot!
I'm feeling some inspiration stirring in my bones (:
Anyway, major thanks to 9tailsfox2 and BlazingXDarkness for the reviews! They were wonderful and I appreciate them!
IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT IMPORTANT
Alright! A major component has come into the story {I'm gonna ruin it here but, you need the explanation. Sigh .}
Willow, obviously (well to me mainly hahaha), speaks English! Totally different from them! {I put they speak Japanese, if that's wrong bah! Oh well. That's how it'll be here.} If you see it italicized (how the authors note is written) that means that speaker is speaking English! If there are NO italics, than they are speaking Japanese!
Last but not least, the title above the story may be the chapter name, but doesn't mean that it relates to the story. It's actually the title of the song that helped me write the chapter. Tehe!
Okay! Onward with the chappie!
Song: Burn / Ellie Goulding
Burn
Willow stirred, uncomfortable with where she was laying.
"She's waking up!"
Naruto leaned over her body, worry etched into his face for a girl he didn't know.
"Mom, it's not time for me to wake up…" she grumbled, shifting around half-awake.
The Hokage frowned, looking over at the young lady.
"What's she saying?"
"Anyone hear that?"
"She doesn't speak Japanese!"
The Hokage lifted a hand, silencing the group. "This is unexpected. I need everyone but Naruto to leave the room. Kakashi, take Iruka to the hospital." Everyone shuffled out quickly, leaving the three alone.
"Hokage-sama, what's wrong with her? Who is she? I don't have a twin! I have no family!" Naruto shouted, pointing an accusatory finger at The Hokage.
He sighed, removing his headwear, gesturing for the young man to take a seat. "Naruto, I am fully aware of Mizuki revealing your inner demon to you. Well, he didn't tell you the whole truth, in part because no one besides the Fourth Hokage, a chosen protector, and I know. When he put the Nine Tailed Demon Fox inside your body you started to repel him, and instantly went into a cardiac arrest. The only choice he had was to seal part in you and part in your twin sister-"
"Hokage-sama," Naruto interrupted, "Where has she been?! Why has no one told me about her?!"
The Hokage frowned, with a soft sigh, "Her identity has remained hidden because we sent her far away. We were afraid of what would happen if you two were together, whether the strength of the chakra being so close would cause the demon to break free."
Naruto shook his head with disgust, anger across his face.
"Naruto, it was the best for everyone. You, her, the villagers, the world perhaps."
"Where was she? The Sand?! Where did you send her?!"
"Naruto, have you been studying your jutsus? The different types? Ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu?"
"DUH! I did graduate! Dattebayo!" Naruto explained, annoyed with The Hokages question.
The Hokage chuckled, "Than you must be aware of the ninjutsu that specializes teleportation."
Naruto crooked his head, a d-oh expression across it.
"Jikūkan Ninjutsu (Time-Space Ninja Techniques) is a technique that allows the user to manipulate the space-time continuum. By manipulating a specific point of space, the user can warp anything targeted into a dimensional void and teleport it to another location instantaneously. An example of this is when one summons another being."
Naruto nodded in fake understanding, "Yep, yep, knew it."
The Hokage shook his head, "Moving forward, we sent your sister into the outside world, completely removed and away from this place."
"That's UNFAIR! That shouldn't have been anyone's call! She should have been here with me!"
"Naruto! It was in every ones' best interest if we separated the two of you. We sent her because she was so much more fragile than you. She needed nurturing." The Hokage lowered his head in what appeared to be shame. Naruto stayed silent, just waiting, wanting to hear what The Hokage had to say.
"We knew she would come back. We have connections with the outside world. We have kept track of her, watched her, know who she is. I have sent others to see to her. We made sure she stayed safe. We even placed genjutsu on her so her appearance wouldn't stand out." The Hokage looked over, seeing those whisker-like marks on the girls face, knowing the red eyes were behind those closed lids.
He closed his eyes with sadness, "Even though we knew she would come back we had hoped she wouldn't. Not only could that cause us so many problems, but she would essentially have nowhere to go."
"She could be with me!"
The Hokage looked at him full on, "Really? You can barely take care of yourself; how could you possibly take care of another person?"
"She can come a shinobi like me!"
The Hokage shook his head, "Judging by when she first started to wake that won't be possible. There's a definite language barrier between you two."
"What the hell?! What's going to happen to her?! You can't send her away again!"
The Hokage shook his head, "I agree; she needs to stay here. Thankfully we have some shinobi here who can act as translators. I will go get them so you can have some privacy with your sister." He nodded to Naruto before leaving the room.
The boy was scared, frightened by the possibility of having someone unknown, that he could have been close with, enter his life. He moved to her side before gently brushing her hair off her cheek. He gazed at her foreign clothes, before returning to the looks that were familiar, but definitely different. His heart ached for the girl that he didn't know. He was confused, hurt, sad, but mostly relieved. Relieved that for once in his life he wouldn't be completely alone, had has Iruka-sensei, he knows that now, but that was totally different compared to a real familiar member. His eyes slid closed before he rested his forehead to hers.
"I SAID I WOULD GET UP IN A MINUTE!" The girl shouted, shoving up, slamming heard against Naruto's forehead.
Willow bent forehead, gripping her face. "DAMMIT! Why were you so close?! GOD!" She brought her face up to his, a glare flaring in her eyes. Shock quickly replaced it, "Naruto? What? I thought this was just a dream?"
Naruto, fascinated that she knew his name, nodded eagerly, not understanding what else she said.
"Hello?! What the hell?! Why can't I wake up?!" She exclaimed, growing increasingly more frustrated. She started pounding her face against the floor, "Wake up, wake up!"
Naruto, grabbed her from behind, "Hokage-sama! Please hurry!"
The Hokage and his companion rushed into the room, worried about the shouting and banging noises.
Willow threw her shoulder against Naruto, pushing him away, all the while knocking the air out of his chest. "Let go!" She froze when she noticed the two men run in.
"Uncle Ebisu? What.. Why are you in my dream?"
Ebisu nudged up his glasses before walking towards Willow, bending down in front of her. "Willow, this isn't a dream. You know it isn't, you can feel in your gut that this is real. I told you that the world would all change for you one day."
Willow stared blankly at him, the fire that had stirred previously had gone out, fear in its place. "This- This can't be real. THIS CAN'T BE HAPPENING!"
He wrapped his fingers around her forearms, "You know it is! At one time didn't you tell me that you felt like there was something wrong with you? Like you just didn't belong?! Here is your answer! You belong!"
Willow shrunk back from him, emotions churning inside her chest.
"If it is true, if I belong here, why am I here now? Why haven't I been here the entire time?"
Ebisu sighed before launching into the same story that the Hokage presented to Naruto.
All the while Naruto couldn't help but stare at the girl that was his sister. The resemblance was remarkable. He has a sister. Well, if that didn't change everything.
Okay! I hope I explained everything that happened so far well enough. Eheh... Tehe! Alrighty! I would appreciate any feedback and criticism! Thanks for reading! :D
