I'm fiddling around with my things, getting ready for the escape. I judged the distance from the window to the ground earlier, and I'm not sure if I could make it down. I push that thought out of my mind, and start eating my now cold dinner. Just then, there was a slight tap on the window and I go over to open it. I poke my head out of the window to see Naruto at the bottom, waving his hands at me. He shouts,"Kira! I'm here!" I hiss,"Shut up! We can't let anyone see us!" I put on both straps of my backpack and make sure it's securely on me. I put one foot on top of the windowsill and one hand to the side to balance myself. I look down, and Naruto said,"Don't worry, I'll catch you! I promise!" I'm starting to have second thoughts, but I raise the window up all the way, crouch down, and leap out. For a second, I feel like I'm suspended in the air, but I feel myself dropping so I close my eyes, but then I feel a pair of arms catch me. I was about to let out a sigh of relief, but Naruto fell on his butt due to the pressure and weight, and I tumbled down on him. I get up, brush the dirt off me, and hold out a hand for him to take. He takes it, and I help him up. He says,"Your clothes are all tattered... I could get you some new ones." I say,"It's okay... I don't need you to get me anything." Naruto says,"It's okay. Just come on!" He starts dragging me, and at first he's walking, then he breaks into a run so I have to run too and it is tiring. He's so hyperactive. When we finally come to a stop, I almost trip over my own feet. He takes me in and says,"This is a kunoichi store. I know you're not a ninja and all, but I think you'd like to look over some of this. Don't worry, I'll pay for everything." I say,"Naruto you don't have to spend your money on me." He says,"It's no problem! You need new clothes and supplies, so get what you want!" I ask,"Are you sure?" He nods and I sigh, and started to look for what I want. Suddenly, I become interested with shopping. I see some nice and fashionable outfits, and I pick out one that might fit me. I take it into the dressing room, and I put it on. There was a headband of some sort to keep my hair up, so I put my hair up into a ponytail. I fit on the rest, and it looks stunning on me. I actually look older than I really am.

I didn't know where the fan came from, and I hold it on my way out of the dressing room. When Naruto sees me, he says,"Wow.. you look way different! It's like you're a completely different person!" I smile and say,"I think I've decided to get this, but I don't know where this fan came from." Just then, the shop owner comes over to us and says,"Do you want that outfit? It does really look good on you, and the fan comes with it. It's supposed to come with the outfit, and it's a good weapon. But you're going to need to have some training with it if you're a beginner." I nod, and Naruto asks,"How much for the whole thing?" The shop owner says,"1000 ryo." Naruto takes out his little frog wallet and hands over the money. The shop owner thanks us, but on our way out, she says,"Wait!" We turn around and the owner says,"I'm throwing in a pack of kunais and shurikens to get you started." She dumps the packages in my arms and starts shooing us out of her shop. She says,"I have to close up now, hope you're satisfied with your purchase!" She closes the doors and I say,"Well that was weird..." Naruto stays silent, then says,"Kira... I have some bad news. My comrades are checking on you tomorrow, and they'll find out that you're gone." I frown and ask,"Is there anywhere where I can stay and also stay hidden?" Naruto is silent for a minute, then he says,"My place isn't safe... my friends visit me, so there's only one place that I know you'll stay hidden in, and that's Sasuke's house. I know where he puts his spare key, so you could stay there." I can't help but start laughing, and apparently Naruto doesn't understand why I'm laughing. I say,"You're such a stalker! Knowing where his spare key is... is he really that special to you?" Grimly, Naruto says,"Yes..." I see his expression so I turn serious too and say,"Sorry... so can I drop off my stuff there first?" He nods and leads the way. I follow him with my backpack on my back, and my new supplies in my arms. Once we got to a structure, he reaches his hand into the pipe, and pulls out a small, rusted key. He fits it in the door, and opens it. Once I got in the house, I get cold immediately. I start to shiver, so I hug my arms tight. Naruto sees me and says,"I'll pay the bills for you until you could get your own money. I'll also tell them that it's me using Sasuke's house too..." I say,"Oh Naruto... why are you doing so much for me? I'm just a stranger." Naruto says,"I want to make you feel comfortable in the hidden leaf village until we can get you a way home!" I smile, and I feel some tears in my eyes. Naruto notices and asks,"Kira, are you okay? What did I say?" I shake my head and said,"It's nothing... I've just never met a friend whose been this nice to me!" Naruto say,"Don't worry, it's nothing!" I smile, and he says,"I think the bedrooms back there..." I say,"I'm sorry for taking over your friend's house..." Naruto says,"It's okay, when I bring him home, we'll get you home too! Or we'll find a new house for you." I say,"Okay, cool." Naruto says,"Okay... well, good night." I say,"Wait!" Naruto stops and asks,"What?" I say,"Remember, I want to show you something... and you tell me if it's normal for you ninja." Naruto raises an eyebrow and says,"Okay..." I open a package of kunais and stuff it in my kunai holder. I run towards Naruto, push him out the door, lock the door behind me, stuff the key in my bra, and ask,"Where's the place where you guys train?" Naruto says,"We have a training field..." I say,"Great, take me there." Naruto leads me there and I find a target practice tree. Naruto asks,"Do you want to be a ninja?" I say,"I'm not sure... it's just that I think I'm supposed to be a ninja all along." I take out a kunai, and fling it at the tree. Surprisingly, it hit the bullseye. I smirked and took out more, and before I knew it, I'm throwing kunais rapidly at the tree, hitting the bullseye every time. It feels like I have more than two hands, and when Naruto gasps, I look at myself and see that in a way, I do have more than two arms. Shadow tentacles were assisting me in throwing the kunais at the tree. I stop right away, and the shadows fade away. I looked to Naruto and ask,"Not normal?" Naruto takes a deep breath and says,"I'm not sure... my friend Shikamaru can do something like that, but not in the way how you do it." I sigh and say,"Then it's time to test out my abilities." I bite my thumb so blood will flow out, and I use one of the hand signs that's in my head. I slam my hands into the ground, and in a poof, a giant hellhound appears. I gasp and jump back, and the hellhound says,"So you've finally summoned me.. Kira." I ask,"How do you know my name?" The hellhound sighs and says,"Guess you're still new to this. When did you come here?" I say,"Two days ago..." The hellhound says,"That explains it... well, I'm Bunkai, and I'm the Sayaka clan's summoning animal." I blink and say,"I don't understand..." Bunkai says,"Of course you don't sweetheart..." I glare at him and I already know that this hellhound is the arrogant kind. I ask,"So tell me so I can understand." Bunkai sighs and asks,"Do you know why you're named Kira?" I shake my head, and Bunkai says,"Your parents never wanted to name you this. Kira means death, and nobody wants to name their child death. They named you that because you were the first girl born in the Sayaka clan. And in the sacred scroll, it states that when the first girl is born, it is mandatory that she is named Kira because she is the special one out of all. It is because she, is the direct descendant of the sage of six paths."
