Chapter 4: An Old Friend

Naruto was on his knees, bowing over and over saying please the entire time. "Hey.. what are you doing? Get up, this is embarrassing!" Says Lucy. Naruto looks up at the blond and stands and rubs the back of his head with a worried look on his face and mumbles, "Sorry, this is just really important."

Lucy looks at the blond haired boy, and tells him, "Okay, lets sit down and talk, i don't even know your name yet."

Naruto nods and sits back in the booth with Lucy and extends his hand and says,"I am Naruto Uzumaki."

"I am Lucy Heartfillia," she says as she shakes his hand,"Okay, now that we are aquainted, tell me what you need help with."

Naruto begins to explain how he had a dream about a tall building that he believed to be a library and how he thinks that there is something very important to him there, and how Mira told him to ask Lucy about it since she has been there the most.

Lucy nodded and asked," What do you think is there that is so important to you?"

Naruto's face paled a bit and whispered,"I rather keep that to myself just in case."

A look of concern crept onto Lucy's face but she decided to let it go. Lucy glanced around the guild and heard the all to familiar voice yelling her name.

"Lucy!" Yelled Natsu as he came in the doors.

Lucy smiles and leaves to talk to Natsu and then returns to Naruto and says, "I'm going to help you but just in case something goes wrong i want Natsu to come with us."

Naruto smiles a huge smile and rubs the back of his head and says, "That is great, the more the better. I just really need to see if it is actually true..." Narutos smile fades a little then looks back up and puts his smile back on.

"Alright lets go then." Natsu says as he walks up with Happy.

After about a hour or so, the four of them make it up to the giant library and as soon as they saw in Naruto's heart started to beat rapidly. Before the others could say a word Naruto runs to and through the front doors and only yells one word

"HINATA!"

Naruto stands in the doorway listening, seeing if there is any trace of what he saw in his dreams. Naruto was just about to scream again when he hears a soft voice that sounds raw as if the person who owns it has been screaming or crying. All the voice says is, "Naruto..."

Naruto turns to his right to see the Hyuga curled up into a corner with tears streaking down her face. He runs to her with all his power and holds Hinata close to his chest and all he can do is weep.

Natsu, Happy and Lucy run into the door to see what is going on to find Naruto holding onto a young woman and both were crying uncontrollably.

"Naruto?" whispers Hinata.

"I'm so sorry Hinata, I failed every single one of you. I failed the village, everyone is dead because of me." Naruto holds her close and keeps repeating sorry over and over. Hinata grabs his arms and looks him in the eyes.

"Naruto-kun, you did not fail anyone, after what we saw happen to you, everyone began to fight ten times harder. Everyone thought you were dead, even after we fought it was no use, she just destroyed everything. She killed so many of us. She would send many through to other deminsions, and others she would just cut them down. I don't know where anyone else is, all i could do when i arived here was call out for you, and you came."

Lucy covers her mouth during thier talk, trying to silence her cries. Natsu is just staring at the two, completely shocked.

Hinata looks up at Naruto then stands. She grabs his hand and tells him, "Like i have said before, it was your smile that saved me. All that we can do is smile that we are alive and pray that atleast some of the others are okay."

Naruto nods and grips onto the Hyuga's hand and stands. "We must survive for our friends."
