Chapter 11

Naruto's POV

So, first off. The whole ordeal with Sky having hypothermia, Sasuke getting to the point where he couldn't go on, then the Dragon. Yeah. It was stressful. Then of course, I was freezing half to death throughout most of the journey. But it's all good since we're here. If we manage to survive with the Dragons. Anyways, the Dragon landed in a snow covered valley beyond the Mountains. And by 'beyond' I mean, behind a forest that was behind a valley that was behind the mountain we were on. Does that make sense? The Dragon circled over the valley. There were tons of Dragon's. Some young others not. But even the young ones looked to be about teenagers. There were reds, blues, grays, silvers, greens. Every color you could think of, there was a Dragon with that color. But not pink. The valley was littered with huge caves big enough for a couple of Dragons. The Dragon flew down and landed. All the other ones looked at us but didn't approach. Sasuke slid down then I grabbed Sky and slide down after him. One emerald green Dragon walked over to us. Just looking at him it was obvious he was the one in charge. The black Dragon and the leader started talking. For some reason, we couldn't hear what they were saying like we could earlier. But even that was weird. Because we could hear him with our ears but his mouth wasn't moving. I looked at Sasuke, who shrugged. A few minutes later, the emerald green Dragon looked at us.

"I will show you where you may keep female," He said. Now we could hear him. I was about to say that her name was Sky, but I decided not to and picked up Sky. Sasuke took her bag and we followed the green Dragon across to a huge cave. Now that I thought about it, I wasn't sure how a Dragon could help Sky. I mean, up until now I was sure they would be able to help her and they seem to know how, but I just can't see how they would go about doing it. Maybe they could use magic or something. We entered the cave with a silvery looking Dragon in it. The Dragon looked at us as we entered.

"Elandor," She said, her voice edgy, "I'm sure you have an explanation for the humans?"

"Yes. The female is one of the last members of the Raikai Clan and is ill. The males are her companions and refuse to leave her." The silver Dragon turned her attention to us. Her eyes were a dark, storm grey.

"And you expect me to heal her, is that correct?" She asked Elandor without taking her eyes off of us.

"I leave that choice to you, Arabathia (air-uh-bay-th-ee-uh)," He said. Something told me that this Dragon didn't want to help Sky. I sensed Sasuke tense next to me.

"Do you have proof she is from the Raikai Clan," Arabathia asked.

"She bares there crest," Elandor said. I crouched and set Sky down then showed them her mark. The circle with two crescent moons on either side with finger prints surrounding it. Arabathia looked at the mark then at me and Sasuke.

"How do you know they are trustworthy?" She asked.

"We believe they are trustworthy for the time being. I am also curious as to what this girl is like. She is the daughter of Akira and Toroa." This got her attention. Apparently, Sky's parents were respected here. She looked at us.

"I will do what I can. But I am making no promises. She is in very bad condition, I am surprised she made it as long as she has."

"Thank you," I said, dipping my head. Sasuke did the same and we walked out of the cave, leaving her to do her work. Elandor went back to where ever he stays, leaving me and Sasuke slightly clueless. Actually, clueless. Period.

"So, how about some food?" I asked, looking at Sasuke. He rolled his eyes but handed me Sky's bag.

"Here. I'm not hungry."

"Seriously? You're kidding? You haven't eaten in hours."

"I'm not hungry, Naruto."

"Alright, alright," I said, giving in, "Suit yourself."

I sat down with the bag and ate some fruit. Sasuke sat near me but seemed deep in thought. He was probably worried about Sky. I was to. But, she would be alright. She's Sky. Sky doesn't give in that easily.

"Why don't you just tell her how you feel," I asked around a piece of fruit.

"I can't," Sasuke said.

"Why? You scared at how she'll react?" He snorted.

"No."

"Then tell her. If you don't, when she wakes up, I'm going to go in there and tell her that you like her." Sasuke looked at me. I could tell by his eyes he didn't like that idea.

"I'll kill you if you do that," He growled. I shrugged.

"Then you're gonna have to tell her," I said.

"Ugh. I can't Naruto," He said. I hung my head, not understanding. Sasuke could be confusing. Because he'll tell you half of something then keeps the rest to himself, leaving you wondering what the heck he's thinking. I think he liked it that way to.

"Why Sasuke? I don't understand."

"Hn."

"Oh come on. No 'Hn's.'" When Sasuke didn't answer it was obvious he wasn't going to talk about it anymore. So, I finished eating then put the stuff up and left it with him.

I walked around watching the Dragons. The really little ones played with each other, which was fun to watch. They were almost like cats. The parents of the little Dragons watched me warily, so I didn't get to close. I noticed a blood red Dragon sitting with this other Dragon, who looked to be about his age. They both were probably around a teenager if they were humans. As I watched the red one seemed to get mad and bared his teeth. The other got defensive and half snarled. The red one struck out with its forepaw but the other dodged and moved away. The red one snorted and looked at me. I quickly looked away but watched him out of the corner of my eye. It narrowed its eyes at me but didn't approach, which I was thankful for. As I watched the Dragons, it became obvious that each family had their own cave. It appeared as though both the male and females hunted. So, I guess the male and females were equals. Some Dragons had scars on their body. I can't think of why though, as far as I could tell, there weren't any creatures big enough to be there enemies. Maybe they got into fights with each other. I saw Sasuke watching these two Dragons in the sky, so I looked up to see what was going on. It looked as if the two Dragons were either doing some sort of dance in the sky or fighting. I couldn't tell which.

Soon, it was dark out and I saw Arabathia walk out of her cave so I jogged up to her.

"Is Sky ok?" I asked. She looked at me. I can't stress how intimidating it is to talk to a creature that's seriously bigger than you.

"She is resting."

"When can I see her?"

"That is for her to decide," Arabathia said then walked off over to two other female Dragons. I walked back over to Sasuke.

"What'd she say?" He asked.

"She said that Sky's resting," I told him.

"When can we see her?"

"I dunno. She just said that was for Sky to decide." Sasuke nodded. We ended up sleeping outside of the cave Sky was in. I guess Arabathia didn't mind because she didn't wake us up or move us.

The Next Day

Sky's POV

I groaned and opened my eyes. The last thing I remember was being attacked by weird creatures in the woods. Everything else was a blur. Naruto saying 'Hold on,' Sasuke carrying me through a snow storm. Then a Dragon. There was something about a Dragon. That's when my surroundings kicked in. I was in a cave. Why the heck was I in a cave?

"Oi! Sasuke she's awake!" I turned and saw Naruto sitting a few feet away.

"Naruto, why the heck am I in a cave?" I asked.

"Are you ok? How are you feeling?" Naruto asked. Then Sasuke walked in. I looked at him and our eyes met. I saw many things in his eyes. Worry. Uncertainty. Relief. And something else I couldn't quite place.

"Finally, I was wondering when you would wake up," He said, smirking.

"Oh shut up. Well somebody tell me why I'm in a cave?" I said standing and stretching.

"Man, your completely healed," Naruto said, examining me. He poked my side and I flinched.

"Yes, I'm healed, now quite poking me!" He laughed but leaved me alone.

"Come outside and you'll see why you're in a cave," Sasuke said, walking out. I followed with Naruto behind me. I gasped when I got out of the cave. There were Dragons everywhere. It was amazing. There baby Dragons running around play fighting, their parents watching them. A few of them were eating something, I couldn't tell what, and I liked it that way. As we walked out of the cave, they looked at us. I could feel the tension in the air. Obviously they were uncertain of us. I wouldn't blame them. If humans killed my race then years later three of them appear randomly, I would be cautious to. In fact, humans did kill off my Clan, so I knew exactly what they were feeling. An emerald green Dragon approached us.

"That's Elandor," Naruto whispered to me, "I think he's the leader." I nodded and dipped my head to the Dragon.

"Elandor," I said.

"I see you are well," He said, looking at me.

"Yes. Thank you for allowing me and my friends to stay. It is appreciated."

"It has been many moons since a member of the Raikai Clan has come to us. Your companions told me that you were searching for the Dragons." I nodded.

"I was. My Mother told me what happened with my kind and that two of your kind had survived. So, I wanted to see it for myself." Elandor's expression turned grave.

"What your kind did was appalling and horrific," He said, "Now we are wary of humans."

"I understand. The humans destroyed my Clan also, for much of the same reasons." The Dragon looked at me, his green eyes showing something I couldn't place.

"What do they call you?"

"Skylia," I told him, "Skylia Raikai."

"Welcome, Skylia, you and your companions may stay as long as you like," He said. I knew he was being friendly, but I could still sense the underlying threat in his voice. With that, he left.

"You handled that well," Sasuke said, looking at me. I could tell he was impressed. I smiled.

"Thanks," I said, "It wasn't that hard. You just have to know how to speak. And, unfortunately, I learned how to speak like that from diplomatic class in school." They laughed.

"But what was the Skylia thing?" Naruto asked.

"Oh, that's my full name. It's new to me to, I only learned of it a few days ago. Well, maybe a week now."

We walked over to a big rock and sat on it, watching the Dragons.

"So, what happened exactly?" I asked, "I only remember blacking out after the creatures attacked me, everything else is a blur."

"You got hypothermia," Naruto said like it was no big deal. I blinked, shocked.

"I what?"

"You got hypothermia," he repeated.

"I got that part. But how did you guys get me from the woods all the way here?"

"We carried you," Sasuke said. I was surprised and grateful that they would go that far.

"Guys….," I said, not knowing what to say.

"What? You think we were just gonna leave you there?" Sasuke asked.

"Yeah! Your our friend we weren't gonna let you die," Naruto said. I looked from one to the other. I was sitting in between them. I wanted to hug them. So I did. I grabbed their shirts and pulled them closer so I could though. They were thoroughly surprised, so I felt successful. Both of them hesitated before hugging me back. And, just because I wanted to, I ruffled their hair. Sasuke ducked slightly, giving me a weird look. Naruto just looked up at my hand.

"What was that for?" Sasuke asked.

"Aw, Sasuke doesn't like his hair being messed with," I teased.

"No, I was just wondering what it was for. You usually don't do that." I shrugged.

"I felt like it. And did it snow while you guys were carrying me? 'Cause there's a lot of snow here."

"Yeah, there were snow storms," Naruto said, "bad ones to." I felt guilty, making them carry me through that.

"I'm sorry," I mumbled.

"Don't apologize," Sasuke said. Although it sounded more like an order.

"Yes. O Wise One," I said, saluting him. Sasuke smiled and Naruto laughed. I liked it when Sasuke smiled. It was always genuine.

"Oh yeah," I said, "I wanted to ask you guys something."

"What's up?" Naruto asked.

"How'd you guys find this place?"

"We didn't." I frowned.

"A Dragon found us," Sasuke said, "The black one over there." I looked over to where Sasuke indicated with his head and saw a big black Dragon.

"Wow. He looks….intimidating," I said.

"Yeah," Naruto laughed, "We had to convince him we weren't lying."

"And he said that if we showed any sign of lying, he would kill us," Sasuke added.

"Lovely," I mumbled. Well, isn't he welcoming!

"Hey, where's my bag?" I asked, looking around. Sasuke reached behind him and handed me the bag. I took it and rummaged around for the sheet of paper I had. It had various greetings, oaths and just normal speech in my native tongue. There were oaths incase the Dragons didn't trust us right away, so they were there so I could prove our trust and loyalty. I found the sheet and took it out, reading the language then the English translation. Once I thought I had it down, I jumped down off the rock, my boots thumping when I hit the ground.

"Where're you going?" Naruto called.

"I'm gonna go practice," I said, hoping I didn't get myself killed.

"Ok, be careful!" He said as I walked off. I raised my hand in acknowledgement and looked around. I saw a beautiful sapphire blue Dragon and walked over. As I walked, I started humming a song that just came to my head. The snow wasn't too deep, just mid-shin. The Dragon must have heard me because it turned its head to look at me. I continued a little more slowly then crouched a few feet away.

"Hviel," I said in my native tongue. I'm pretty sure it meant 'hello' or 'hi.' I hope it did, anyway.

"Hviel," It said. Her voice indicated a female. I smiled. Just so there wasn't any confusion, I decided to tell her that I couldn't speak my native tongue very well.

"Itte bvril navia Acriptia," I said. She made a noise I'm pretty was laughter. I sat down in the snow, crossing my legs.

"What do they call you?" She asked.

"Skylia," I told her, "Or Sky, either one. What do they call you?"

"Heil," She said, "You are Akira's daughter, am I correct?"

"Yes, I am."

"Is she still alive?"

"Yeah. She couldn't come with me though." Heil nodded. Her blue scales reflected the snow's light, casting different hues of blues onto the ground.

"What were you humming?" Heil asked her voice curious.

"I was humming a song," I said.

"Do you sing?"

"Sometimes."

"Would you like to?" I looked at her, slightly surprised.

"You probably wouldn't know the song," I said, looking at the ground. She laughed.

"So? I don't mind." I shrugged and hummed the tune slowly then started to sing.

"Waking up to see that everything is OK, the first time in my life and now it's so great. Slowing down I look around and I am so amazed, I think about, the little things that make life great. I wouldn't change a thing about it, this is the best feeling! This Innocence, is brilliant, I hope that it will stay. This moment is perfect, please don't go away. I need you now, and I'll hold onto it, don't you let it pass you by. I found a place so safe not a single tear, the first time in my life and now it's so clear. Feel calm I belong, I'm so happy here. It's so strong and now I let myself be sincere. I wouldn't change a thing about it, this is the best feeling! This Innocence is brilliant; I hope that it will stay. This moment is perfect, please don't go away. I need you now, and I'll hold onto it. Don't you, let it pass you by."

I fell silent and traced my finger in the snow. I had no problem singing in front of a big crowd, but singing in front of one or two people I get a little nervous. I know that's weird, but it's true.

"You have a beautiful voice," Heil said, sounding impressed. I flushed slightly at the high praise.

"Thanks."

"You should do it more."

"I don't get very many opportunities," I told her, "I mainly sing in front of my friends."

"You could sing here," Heil said, slowly, as if thinking about it. I raised my eyebrows in unbelief.

"Really?"

"Sure." I made a face.

"I wouldn't know what to sing though." Heil looked at me, her blue eyes glowing.

"Don't worry about what people think. Just sing what you're feeling." I nodded, smiling. I liked Heil. I noticed that she spoke more casually than Elandor. I guess it might be her age. Heil turned her head then sat up slightly. I followed her gaze and saw a blood red Dragon approaching us. He eyed me and immediately felt threatened. They started talking but I couldn't hear the conversation. But it got pretty heated and Heil got mad. She even growled. I almost started laughing, but I restrained myself. After a few more minutes, the red Dragon left. Heil looked at me and snorted.

"Sorry," She said, "That's my brother. He's always been overly suspicious of humans. But, once you get to know him, he's nice." I nodded.

"That's the same with one of my friends," I said, remembering how Sasuke was when I first met him. He seemed guarded and antisocial.

"Is your friend here?" Heil asked.

"Mmhmm. Sasuke," I said, turning to look for the raven haired boy, "He's around here somewhere. He has black hair."

"Oh, I saw him around here yesterday," Heil said, "He was worried about you." I looked at her.
"Really?" I knew Sasuke would be worried but I wanted to hear what she had to say.

"Yes, very. He kept looking into Arabathia's cave."

"Who's Arabathia?"

"She's the Dragon that healed you."

"Ohhh." I heard a yelp and turned around and saw Naruto being tackled by a baby Dragon. I laughed when he faked being dead and the Dragon sniffed him.

"So, who are your parents?" I asked, turning back to Heil.

"My Father's Elandor," She said, "My Mother is Mycrithia (mi-crith-ee-uh)."

"Your Father's Elandor?" I asked, surprised. She nodded.

"So, that makes you the daughter of the leader?"

"Yes. I personally think he can be a little paranoid but I love him."

"I know what you mean."

I talked to Heil for a while longer then I decided to go get some food. So, I walked back to where I had left my bag and plopped down on the rock I was on earlier. I heard the sound of talons on rock followed by a grunt and followed the noise. I walked down a path and saw Sasuke pinned down by a dark grey, almost black Dragon. I could tell from its build and slenderness that it was a female.

"Hey!" I yelled. When she didn't acknowledge me, I decided to use force. I wasn't about to let her hurt Sasuke. I closed my eyes and started to concentrate. A few seconds later, I raised my hand and fire shot out. She moved alright, but took Sasuke with her. She didn't go far, just enough to get out of range. Sasuke looked mad and was trying to get out of her forepaw. Her attention was now on me though, thanks to the fire.

"Release him," I said. She narrowed her eyes at me but slowly lowered Sasuke to the ground. I watched her and she watched me. It was almost like to girls sizing each other up to get to some guy. She snorted and launched into the air, flying away. I strode over to Sasuke, who was standing, rubbing his side.

"You ok?" I asked.

"Yeah, thanks."
"No prob, what happened?"

"I dunno. I was walking then she attacked me. Well, she was probably trying to warn me off or something."

"She didn't speak to you at all?" I asked, scrunching up my face. He looked away, his hair hiding his face.

"No." I shrugged. There was probably a cave or nest back there and she was warning him in her own little way. Which, would be pinning him and looking like she wanted to eat him.

"Hey, can I ask you something?" I asked.

"Sure," He said, leaning against the side of the mountain. The valley was surrounded by them.

"What….what was your Clan like?" I asked, slowly. I didn't want to hit a nerve with him. I noticed his eyes darkened some, so his Clan was a sensitive subject.

"My Clan was very close. Everybody knew everybody," Sasuke said quietly, "My Father was highly respected and my…..older brother excelled quickly in his training and was on the ANBU Black Ops at a fifteen." (A/N: Ok, I don't know exactly at what age Itachi was in the ANBU Black Ops, I just thought it was around fifteen, just saying). He told me some other things. I noticed that whenever he talked about his brother he got this deadly look in his eyes and a strange tone of voice.

"My parents knew yours you know," I said, once he was finished. He looked at me.

"They did?" I nodded.

"Yeah. My Mother told me. She also told me what happened. I'm sorry Sasuke." He didn't respond, just starred at the ground. I looked down at his hand and slipped mine in his. I don't know why, I guess I just wanted him to know that I was there and understood. He looked down at our hands and I thought I saw his face flush before he looked away. Hmmm. Something was going on. Right then, I would have given anything to be able to get into his mind. Silence fell between us.

"I'm a princess," I blurted out, not being able to take the silence. He gave me a weird look.

"What?" It sounded like he was trying not to laugh. I shoved his shoulder.

"It's not funny! And I'm not lying, my Father was the Head of my Clan," I said, glaring. Sasuke raised his hands in surrender.

"Alright. I believe you," He said, smiling, "I just can't picture you in a dress." I laughed.

"Me neither," I said, grinning, "I wore one once though. My friend kept telling me how to sit." He snorted.

"You have to sit a certain way?"

"I guess," I said. I fell silent, thinking. Then a thought came to my head and I looked at Sasuke. He raised an eyebrow, as if asking 'what?' I reached over and tried to poke his side, but he grabbed my wrist. Hehe. I whipped my other hand around and managed to poke him. He flinched slightly then grabbed my wrist. So, now he hand both wrists. Great. So much for my evil plan. I struggled against him but in vain. Eventually, my hands were out to the sides and I was leaned toward him slightly. But, I was stubborn and refused to give up. Finally, he sighed.

"I'm not gonna let go," He said.

"Obviously," I mumbled, giving up. Our faces were really close since I had twisted in every direction I could without hurting either of us. Actually, scratch that, our bodies were sorta close. It was almost like we were dancing. Haha. I looked at him and made a puppy face.

"Please?" Sasuke rolled his eyes and shook his head. I sighed and thumped my forehead against his chest. His hands were warm and soft. I could feel his heartbeat and I relaxed some. It was funny how it could do that. I yelped and jumped back when I felt Sasuke's hand poke my side. He grinned and released my other wrist. I glared.

"I'm gonna get you Uchiha!" I yelled and lunged at him. Sasuke turned and ran down the path, towards the valley. But, the path branched off into a different direction and he ran down that one. I followed, close behind. Sasuke made it hard for me to keep up. He jumped on rocks that we could easily slip on and sprain an ankle. But, I followed him anyway, hoping he knew where he was going. I managed to catch up some and when we got to the last few rocks, I reached forward and shoved him off the last one. He grunted and fell to the ground and I jumped down on top of him. Before he could react, I started poking his sides with my hands. He grabbed my wrist and kicked me off with his feet. I went over his head and rolled when I hit the ground. He quickly followed and tackled me. We rolled around, trying to gain dominance over the other. We were actually pretty even. Eventually, I managed to pin him somewhat and started tickling him. He growled and blocked my hands off, making it hard for me to get to his sides. So, I went for his neck. This time, I think he almost laughed. I figured he was restraining himself. I think I was right because he grabbed my wrists and rolled, so he was on top of me, sitting on my stomach. I smirked.

"Ticklish huh?" I asked. Sasuke just glared. It didn't really matter if he answered or not because his chest was heaving some. But, he made a mistake and relaxed his grip some and I poked him real quick. He yelped and I kept going, forcing him off of me. I tickled him some more and eventually he started laughing some.

"Alright! Stop it already!" He laughed. I snorted.

"Yeah right! I finally found your weakness!" I said, tackling him. Sadly, he disappeared and reappeared behind me and started poking me. Well, let's just say my ribs were very ticklish. And he knew that. I laughed and tried to block his hands but that was hard when he was on top of me.

"Alright! Just stop, please," I said. He didn't. Figures. After a few seconds, I managed to get through his hands and poke him off of me. I threatened to tackle him and he scooted away, laughing. He looked cute, smiling and laughing. Ugh, this wasn't supposed to be happening.

"We should probably head back," I said, trying to get my mind off of his cuteness. He nodded and led the way back.

When we got back to Naruto he gave us a weird look.

"What?" I asked, looking at him as I got a drink.

"Where were you two?" He asked. I was about to answer but Sasuke beat me to it.

"None of your business." Naruto made a weird face and looked at Sasuke, who just gave him a look. I looked from one boy to the other. Yup, something was definitely going on.

"Alright," I said and they both looked at me, "What's going on?" Naruto gave Sasuke a look, who just looked at me.

"Nothing," He said, "Why would you think something was going on?" I shook my head and took a hand full of fruit from my bag. Then Naruto grabbed Sasuke's wrist and dragged him over a few feet away. I couldn't hear what they were saying but I'm pretty sure Naruto was insisting on Sasuke doing something. Sasuke obviously didn't want to do whatever it was. I sighed and looked around and spotted Heil talking to Elandor. I'm assuming they were talking about me because Elandor looked over at me.

"Oi! Sky!" I looked over at Naruto.

"Yup?" I asked, shoving my hand into my pocket.

"I heard you were gonna sing?" I shrugged.

"I might, I dunno."

"You should." I looked up at the sky.

"What would I sing? These are Dragon's."

"Good point. What you usually sing is pretty though."

"Thanks, Naruto."

After a few more minutes, Heil walked over to me.

"My Father wishes to speak to you," She said in my mind. I nodded and followed her over to the Emerald Green Dragon. Once we were alone with her Father, I dipped my head respectfully.

"You wished to see me," I said, looking at him. We were in a cave, I'm assuming the one he and his family stayed in because it was the biggest cave I had ever seen. It was secluded from all the others.

"My Daughter tells me you sing," He said, looking down at me.

"I do," I said.

"I would be interested in hearing you," Elandor continued, "What would you think of singing tonight?" I raised my eyebrows.

"In front of everyone?" I asked, growing a little anxious.

"If you wish." Now, don't get me wrong, I would love to preform for the Dragons, but in front of everyone was a little nerve wracking. Especially when they were creatures that could easily eat you within a few seconds. I swallowed.

"Where would I preform, er, sing?" I asked.

"There is a rock big enough for you to stand on," Heil said I nodded.

"OK, I wouldn't mind singing for you," I decided, "But, it might be different that what you might have heard before."

"Your Mother used to sing," Elandor said carefully.

"She did?" I asked quickly.

"Yes. I heard her preform many times."

"Wait….so you survived the war between our kinds?"

"I did." Wow. That was unexpected. This Dragon had to be hundreds of years old! That puts a perspective on how long Dragon's could live. Not knowing what to say I just said, "Alright, so I'm gonna go prepare for tonight." They nodded and I walked out and hurried back over to Naruto and Sasuke. They looked up as I walked over.

"Where'd that Dragon take you?" Naruto asked.

"She took me to Elandor," I told him as I sat down between him and Sasuke.

"What'd he want?" Sasuke asked.

"He wanted to know if I would preform tonight."

"What'd you say?" Naruto asked, excitedly.

"I said that I would do it," I said, taking a breath.

"That's awesome Sky!" He said, hugging me.

"Not so tight," I grunted. He released me and smiled cheekily.

"Sorry."

"Its fine," I said. It took me a few seconds to notice my hand on top of Sasuke's. I guess I put it there when Naruto hugged me. Well, more like tackled. Sasuke slowly moved his hand out from under mine. I smiled apologetically at him.

"Hehe, sorry."

"Its fine," he said, "What are you gonna sing?"

"I don't know," I mumbled, deep in thought. What was I supposed to sing to Dragons. I noticed Heil watching me from a distance. She must have known I was nervous but I think she smiled at me (if Dragons could smile). I remembered what she said about not caring what people thought and just singing what I felt. Well, (although I hate to admit it) what was on my mind was Sasuke. And whatever he and Naruto were hiding from me. I sighed and flopped down onto my back. At least I had an hour or two before nightfall. I had time to think of something.

Those few hours past really fast and soon it was night fall and I was sitting on the edge of the big rock Heil had mentioned. And it was indeed big. Practically a tiny stage if you ask me. So, I was sitting on the edge with my feet hanging off. There was a full moon shedding light so I could see all the Dragons around the valley. Sasuke and Naruto were with our stuff to the side. Thankfully, Naruto had given me this thing that he had brought, it was a mic head piece thing. I just hoped it wouldn't echo off the mountains. Hehe

"Hello," I said quietly, seeing if the mic worked. IT did.

"Hello," I said normally, "For those of you that don't know, I'm Sky. Elandor asked if I would preform so here I am. So, just for some back ground. I was born here, in this world but somehow got transported to a different world when I was little. So, the song I'm going to sing you probably won't know. But, I hope you like it."

"Is this a dream?
If it is, please don't wake me from this high.
I've become comfortably numb
Until you opened up my eyes
To what it's like when everything's right
I can't believe!"

I stood and walked around the rock/stage. I danced or jumped around occasionally.

"You found me when no one else was looking!
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me, you found me.

So, here we are, that's pretty far
When you think of where we've been
No going back, I'm fading out
All that has faded me within
You're by my side now everything's fine
I can't believe!

You found me
When no one else was looking
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through
All of my confusion
The ups and the downs and you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me, you found me.

And I was hiding, 'till you came along
And you showed me where I belong
You found me found me when no one else was looking
How did you know?
How did you know?

You found me when no one else was looking
How did you know just where I would be?
Yeah, you broke through all of my confusion
The ups and the downs
And you still didn't leave
I guess that you saw what nobody could see
You found me."

Naruto's POV

I listened to Sky sing and smiled. It was obvious what the song was about, she liked someone. And I was willing to bet it was Sasuke. I looked at Sasuke as he watched Sky move and dance around on the rock.

"Go talk to her," I insisted for probably the millionth time. Sasuke closed his eyes and sighed, irritated.

"Dobe—"
"I don't care! Now go!" I interrupted, pulling him to his feet and pushing him towards Sky. She was almost finished anyway. Sasuke glared but walked off. I smiled. Good, maybe he'll actually tell her this time. Sasuke could get annoying, but I was happy he had found someone he liked. When they were alone, I had actually….kinda…sorta….found them. Thankfully, they didn't notice me. So, I followed them around. Hehe. I could definitely use the fact that Sasuke was ticklish. I would never have imagined him being ticklish. He just doesn't seem like the type to be ticklish. Anyways, Sky finished her song and climbed down off the rock. Sasuke approached her a few seconds later, his hands in his pockets as usual. I watched from where I sat.

Sky's POV

I climbed down from the rock and looked up to see Sasuke walking towards me. His hands were in his pockets like usual. He always looked so calm and collected. I'm sure that he wasn't though.

"What was that about?" He asked, stopping a few feet away.

"What? The song?" I asked, looking at him. He nodded. I scratched the back of my head.

"Hehe," I said, smiling slightly. He rolled his eyes, smirking. I looked down at the ground, hoping I wasn't making a weird face or something.

"Is something wrong?" Sasuke asked, taking a few steps towards me, peering at my face.

"Oh no," I said, "I was just thinking."

"Ok…," he said. He seemed troubled by something.

"What's up?" I asked.

"It's not important," He mumbled.

"Come on, Sasuke," I said, tracing my finger over the Hidden Leaf symbol on his forehead protector.

"I…," He started, then shook his head. I looked at him.
"Sasuke, what is it?"

"Nothing," He said, "I should go." I watched him walk off. I wished he would tell me what was bothering him.

"Why don't you tell him how you feel?" I turned around at the male voice. I was slightly surprised to see Heil's brother looking at me.

"You see right through me," I said quietly.

"Yeah, so why don't you tell him?" He asked.

"I don't know," I said. The Dragon was silent for a few minutes.

"I was wrong about you," He finally said, his crimson eyes boring into me. I smiled.

"Don't worry about earlier," I told him, "I understand." He just looked at me then started to walk off.

"Wait," I said. He looked at me.

"What's your name?" I asked.

"Kynite." I nodded and he walked off.

I walked back over to Naruto who gave me a questioning look.

"I don't know where Sasuke went," I said, guessing at his question.

"Oh. Well, what happened?" He asked as I lied down.

"Something's bothering him and he won't tell me what," I said.

"Give him some time and he'll come around," Naruto told me.

"I hope so," I mumbled and closed my eyes. Hopefully, Naruto would be right and Sasuke would come around.

"Naruto?" I asked.

"Hm?"

"What do you keep talking to Sasuke about?" Naruto made a face.

"Nothing."

"You're a bad liar."

"I can't tell you," He mumbled.

"Why?"

"Because Sasuke would get mad at me."

"Ah." I closed my eyes and tried to get to sleep.

A/N: The songs called You Found Me by Kelly Clarkson. i LOVE that song and thought it would give the story some closure on how Sky feels:)
