"well you have to go to the land of the great four gates sit down let me explain"
Sakura sat down with teodor on her lap and she open him up to see this drawing of a map

"ya I …I got that but how will this get naruto back?"
"well you see naruto died this spirit went to one of these four gates to go into the after life but what you have to do is to go into one of these gates and get his soul back"
"I see so what will I need to pack?"
"well food and a lot of it water something to sleep on and a few sheets of paper and a pen or pencil to write sir ten things down that you mite find important "
"ok I'll get the things I need"
Sakura got up put teodor down on her bed she got her school bag, emptied it , got her note book and pencil and put it back in then she went down to the kitchen and opened the fridge to find some leftover chicken and potatoes and some salad with an apple or two and a can of soda and a few bottles of water and went back up to her room and put the things in a nice neat order then went into her closet to get out a sleeping bag
"well that's all of it now what ?"
"get a knife for protection who knows what mite happen to you"
"but why won't you come with me?"
"no I can't sakura the people there see me as a life bender going against the laws of life so I will stay here waiting for you"
"ok I'll do my best"
"don't worry sakura you will bring him back don't worry "
sakura went down stairs to get a knife and then back up and packed it was well
"what now?"
"just stand here I'll do the rest"
Sakura stood in the middle of her room then teodor rose above her he opened up the pages begin to flip though back and forth then began to fall out and start to blow around sakura faster and faster then they all stopped and attached themselves to her as though she was a mummy them they fell onto a pile on the floor sakura was gone
"ahah were am I ??!?!?!"
"sakura said while getting up from dirt road looking around to see dirt mud houses like the one poor African people live in that you see on tv sakura walked down the street
"your new here aren't you?" said a hooded man sitting by a wall
"yes I am can you tell me were I can find an inn?"
"sure I can tell you but first "
The hooded man got up and walked up to here
"don't worry I won't do anything that will harm you"
he raised his hands and put them on her eyes they felt cool as though you were washing them with water he toke this hands back and went back to sit down by the walls
sakura opened her eyes to see a brand new world there was so much to look at there were waterfalls coming of the roofs of houses the dirt road was soil so soft to the touch the wind blew I soft breeze and the lamps kept the streets well light
"wh…what happened ?!?!?"
"you see this village is protected by a spell case on ones eyes to show the user there is nothing here I'm here to take that spell away if one can pass my test "
"what test?"
"are you new here? If yes then it means you came here by accident so your ok if not then go away you see?"
"oh I see if someone want to destroy the town they wouldn't cause they would see nothing but a dirt town"
"oh you are smart!"
"thanks now were can I find an inn?"
"go up these stairs there you'll see the inn called four ways on the left can't miss it"
"thank you hope to speck with you again" sakura started going up the stairs then she saw the inn and walked inn to see it was like a bar
"hehe look what the cat brought in" said a man in the back
"can…an I see the inn keeper?" sakura said
"what can I do for you said a old lady that looked as if she could die right then and there
"I would like a room please" sakura said wile bowing
"of coarse come this way please this way" the inn keeper pointed to some stairs
"what's your name stranger?" said the inn keeper
"sakura " while going up the stairs and down a hall
"sakura what a pretty name my name is mim this is the room you my use "
The room was small a table a bed and a closet just a tad smaller the her room back at home
"this will do thank you "
"if you become more regular you may get a better room but if it just a short visit then the small one the best"
"yes I won't be staying long maybe a night or two that's all"
"of coarse dear"
"may I ask something?" sakura said
"yes dear what is it?"
"how am I suppose to pay for this?"
"oh pay what do you mean pay ?.. oh you must be new here don't worry here we pay each other with goods or favors for example if there was a man who sold oranges he would give everyone oranges for free and everyone will give him things and favors for free and if his orange trees got sick it wouldn't matter people could go on for a little while Without oranges until he gets new ones but they don't stop giving and helping him you see"
"wow that amazing how it works like that now lets see how I could pay you back…. I know on my journey here thou out this land I could draw drawings for you to hang on the walls because I fell I'll be coming back a lot"
"that sounds far deal!"
"thank you"
"oh heres the key it you want to leave things here or sleep with no one bothering you just lock the door"
"thank you again"
"no problem now I have to tend to my customers if you want come down to the bar and help yourself to a drink"
"I will good bye"
sakura closed the door and locked it
"I wonder what is in the closet?"
She opened it to find a pair of clothing in it
"well I guess I could try to fit in"
a little whale later she put on her new cloths
she had a short shirt laced with green felt just covering her tits her shoulders had these big puffs of fabric covering them with this she had a short skirt that goes up just above her knees she had matching legwarmers that go up to her knees but just under them but no shoes also with this she had arm warmers and she tied her hair into a bun and put on some bracelets and a necklace with a leg bracelet
"well it feels as if I'm not wearing anything at all but it covers quite well and I can move around so easily in them I guess I should put my cloths in this closet so I don't lose them"
After sakura left the room locking the door again and making her way down stairs
"well look at you so lovely come on"
"whoa look at her !!" said a man from the bar
Sakura sat down hearing all the comments she liked them
"hey why don't you give us a dance !!"
"ya give us a dance!!!" shouted more men from the back
"oh I don't know" sakura said blushing
"come on dear we don't get a lot oh pretty girls here in these parts " said mim
"well were music?" sakura said
"you stupid good for nothing band play better for the young lady!!"
the music lifted sakuras sprit it was a mix of foke and classic
"well if you really want me to ok"
