Questions and More Questions

Wind and rain washed over me in an angry wave. Running and running I never seemed to get far enough from whatever it was that I was running from, but I knew that I couldn't stop or it would take hold of me and never let go. But was that a bad thing? I couldn't tell. Everything was a blur and all I could tell was that I was crying. But the reason, I didn't know.

"Senatae, wake up it's time for dinner!" A voice yelled from behind my door waking me up from the fitful slumber that I was in. It was Kabuto, and for once I was glad to hear his annoying voice.

"I'm coming…" I replied though I was still trying to figure things out. Dragging myself out from underneath the warmth of the covers I gradually brought myself up to the mirror that I had put everything in front of, and I quickly saw just how much of a mess I was.

Hair a wild and crazy mess, red lines that marked where the tears had fallen from my eyes, and my clothes were a wrinkled mess. Well time for my PJ's! Heading over to where my bag was I grabbed a pair of pajamas out. They were long blue and purple striped bottoms that had the strips going down the legs, and a tank top that was blue and had cherries all over it. I loved them because they were cute and comfortable!

After I put them on I took care of my hair by brushing it and putting it up in a ponytail so it was out of my face, took care of the tear marks by rubbing my face so it just looked like I slept on my cheeks, and headed to get some dinner.

"I like your PJ's Se- umm…. I forget your name…." Sasuke said.

"Senatae… it's Senatae," I answered.

"Umm…Natae… that's what I'm going to call you," Hitake announced.

"Ok… Whatever," it was very odd to be given a nickname by a six year old because they couldn't remember your name. I say down at the table seeing that everyone in my squad was here; I had to look twice at my uncle since he had to be disguised as someone else to get into the village, and started to eat my food.

About halfway through eating there was a knock at the door, and when I heard his voice I knew who it was. The little blonde fellow named Naruko that was on Itachi's team.

"Hey Itachi, we're here!" He shouted as he opened the door not even bothering to wait for someone to open it for him.

"YEAH! FOOD!" an even littler version of the blonde exclaimed. He had lighter eyes and darker and spikier hair, and that was about it for differences between the two of them.

"Clingy!" Sasuke shouted in return. Who?

"Sasuke… you know I don't like it when you call me that," The littler Naruko responded.

"But that's what you are Naruto…" she responded. He gave a puffer-fish face and clinged to the back of Naruko's legs to hold up on his nickname.

"Oh now stop… go eat…" Naruko told his little brother who didn't wait to be told twice, "Now who are your guests Itachi? The team that you're being forced to let stay?"

"Yeah, and it's a definite force to let the stay," He replied glaring at me.

"Whatever, you're still just upset that I rejected you," I said responding to the glare.

"You rejected 'Tachi? It's a miracle!" Sasuke exclaimed. Was it really that much of a first?

"That is not the only reason!" Itachi shouted in his defense.

"But it is one of them," I said finishing his sentence that he wasn't going to admit.

"Oh wow… Itachi I really laugh at you. To get stuck with the one person to ever reject you as one of the people that you are supposed to be housing. It would be your luck!" Naruko said trying hard not to burst into laughter.

"Ok can we move away from my unluckiness of the day? Yes I got rejected, yes that girl is now staying at my house, and yes I have to deal with it. But can we please stop talking about it?" Itachi pretty much yelled in frustration. To this everyone nodded and went on with their eating, and soon it was time for me to get some more rest.

I headed to my room, but was quickly stopped by Kabuto. "Senatae I am going to only say this once. You know what our mission is, and it seems to be that you are getting just a little bit too close to these people. So I would try and back off on this new outgoingness and instructiveness before it gets you in trouble. And this isn't coming from me, but from Sensei."

"Fine, I got it. You guys were the ones that told me to act, but whatever. I'm going to bed, now goodnight," I said as I pushed passed him to get into my room. They are so confusing! But oh well, I needed sleep. Tomorrow was the start to the exams.

Though the world seemed to go on normally, my life was still on pause. Stuck in the past that it was still trying to figure out, and not quite ready to face what the future had to offer.

A clear night that reflected in the cool clean water below surrounded me. I was on the edge of a dock somewhere, though I had no idea where. I was crying, but for unknown reasons. That was when I noticed someone coming up from behind me. The stranger was blurry, but I could tell that it was someone I knew. As he got closer, his face started to become more focused and I could tell who he was; my uncle.

Something was wrong though, I didn't want him near me. I couldn't get away though, I didn't know how to swim, and the water was too cold. Next thing that happened was he had his hand over my mouth with something that smelled almost sweet in it that made me tired.

All I heard before everything went black was what he said to himself, "I will have what I want, and I will get revenge on this village."

"NATAE! WAKE UP ALL READY!" Hitake and Sasuke shouted in my ear at once.

Jolting up from where I was laying, I was breathing hard and sacred about what I had just dreamed. What did all of that mean? Did my uncle take me away from someplace forcefully? I grabbed my head from the headache that I was getting.

"Natae you don't look very good. Did you have a bad dream?" Sasuke asked me.

"Y-yeah… I guess I just had a very bad dream. I'm fine now, thank you. What time is it?" I asked wanting to get off the subject.

"Almost seven o'clock, Mommy made breakfast for everyone," Hitake responded. He sounded so cute for trying to sound smart.

"Ok. I'm going to get ready, so can you leave the room so I can?" I asked in a nice way.

"Sure!" both of them said. Before leaving though Sasuke asked with a confused face, "Natae, why are you in this room?"

"Your mother asked me to stay in this room," I answered getting out of the bed and going over to get some different clothes.

"Oh, ok." Sasuke said then left. They were really cute siblings; I wish I had siblings like that. HOLD ON! I really am getting too close to these people, NOT COOL!

I got dressed putting on a pair of long, baggy pants that were black, and a long sleeved light grey shirt. Combing my long black hair I thought about how badly I needed a haircut. I loved my hair, but having it reach almost the middle of my thighs is a little much. I finally put it up into a pony tail to keep it out of my face, and walked into the bathroom to wash my face, then finally out to the dining room to eat breakfast. It was almost 7:20.

"Took you long enough," Kabuto said eating toast. His looked warned me to keep myself distant from the family from now on.

"Shut up Kabuto. It takes me forever to brush my hair, I'm going to go get it cut today," I said getting myself a plate of toast and bacon.

"I thought you liked long hair though," Kabuto said being a smart-aleck about what I had said when I was younger.

I glared at him and responded, "I like long hair, but for it go to the middle of my thighs is a little much."

Coming in from finishing up in the kitchen, Mrs. Uchiha commented, "That is quite long, I can take you into town after the first exam is over if you want."

"Ok, that would be good," I replied with a smile. I could feel Kabuto and my sensei glaring at me for getting too close, but I didn't care. I finished eating and got up to put my dishes away and go brush my teeth. I felt calmer from when I woke up, but when I was ready to go to the exam that was in about another half an hour, I suddenly felt like I was trapped in a ditch that I couldn't get out of. I needed to get some air.

I didn't need anything, so I just shoved my hands in my pockets and left without anyone noticing. I didn't like people following me, so I often left like this.

Going where my feet took me, I soon found myself looking down at a lake that was in the village. It was the way that the water was reflecting the sky that drew me down there; it was just like my dream. Going down to the dock that was at the edge of the lake, I was quickly surprised, by just how much everything was similar. This was the place where I was when my uncle came.

My mind flooded with everything that I had ever dreamt or drew. How did everything connect? What was my uncle hiding? Was Kabuto in on it as well? Did others know something? Nothing made sense and it was giving me a headache. I needed to sit and think, and that was just what I did.
