Hinata walked down the hall to the parking lot. She knew Ino and Sakura would be there waiting for her and she figured they would be listening to the radio.
Just as she thought they had the radio blasting, waiting for Shinobi.
"Hi guys."
"Hey Hinata. Come on we are waiting for Shinobi." Ino said.
"Did you know that Mystery already sent them another song?" Sakura asked.
"Yes. Naruto told me."
"Spending a lot of time with Naruto I see." Ino teased.
Hinata instantly blushed. "I-its not what you think."
"If you say so." Sakura smiled.
"How about you and Sasuke?" Hinata asked.
Now it was Sakura's turn to blush. "I don't know what you are talking about."
"Pa-lease Sakura. You have been all over him since they first walked into the school." Ino said. "Though I don't know what he sees in a girl with such a big forehead."
Hinata was now regretting her question.
"Shikamaru must really like pork, why else would he be interested in you Ino-pig." Sakura stuck her tongue out.
The two than got into an argument about their Shinobi crushes. Hinata knew better than to intervene. Instead she sat back and listened to the radio, waiting for Naruto and Shinobi to come on.
"Well hello there Konoha."
Sakura and Ino instantly stopped.
"This is Karin for Oto Radio. Hope you are having a lovely day."
"Ugh, I still don't like her." Sakura spat. Ino nodded in agreement.
"I'm happy to say that we have another special appearance by our favorite band, Shinobi. They have come to give us a special performance of a new song of theirs. Now you say this is another song by Mystery?"
"That's right." Kakashi's voice came on. "She sent us another song this past weekend."
"Mystery has been sending you a lot of songs it seems. Are you any closer to finding her?"
"Sadly no. We are still on the search for her. We would love to thank her personally for all that she has done for us."
"I personally find it silly to hide yourself like that for so long, especially when a group like Shinobi wants to find you."
"I can understand where you are getting at but I do not agree that it is silly. It takes a lot of guts to do what she is doing. Her songs are impressive and she could sell them without any problem. Instead she is graciously giving them to us. I and the rest of Shinobi just want to thank her personally."
"Um…well…we will see what happens with Mystery. Now let me introduce Shinobi with their latest Mystery song."
"Ha, you show her Kakashi." Ino smiled.
(Alive Now by Late Nite Reading)
Eyes closed in the dead of the night
(In the dead of the night, in the dead of the night)
Laid here for hours, never felt more alive
(Never felt more alive, never felt more alive)
So many thoughts, yeah they're all intertwined
(Yeah, they're all intertwined, they're all intertwined)
I'm getting lost in my head, I'm getting lost in my
Mind
(I'm getting lost in my mind, I'm getting lost in my mind)
'Cause you're feeling it now, let it take you away
and you wanna get out there's no reason to stay
and here we are
and here we go
Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh, This coulda been everything I
wanted
Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh, This coulda been, this this
coulda been
Wind blows and it whispers a sound
(and it whispers a sound, and it whispers a sound)
It rustles the leaves and it's felt all around
(and it's felt all around, and it's felt all around)
You're laughing beside me as we lay on the ground
(as we lay on the ground, as we lay on the ground)
I can't believe we're so lost, I cant believe what we
Found
(I can't believe what we've found, I can't believe what we'v found)
'Cause you're feeling it now, let it take you away
and you wanna get out there's no reason to stay
and here we are
and here we go
whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
This coulda been everything I
wanted
Woah oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
This coulda been, this this
coulda been
'Cause I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now...
'Cause I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now...
'Cause I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now
'Cause you're feeling it now, let it take you away
and you wanna get out there's no reason to stay
and here we are
and here we go
whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh
Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
This coulda been everything I wanted
Woah oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
This coulda been,
this this coulda been
'Cause I feel, I feel alive now
(whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh)
(This coulda been everything I wanted)
I feel, I feel alive now
I feel, I feel alive now
(Whoa oh, oh oh oh oh oh)
This coulda been, this this coulda been.
When the song ended the girls all smiled.
"Yet another awesome song. Man I wish I knew who Mystery was."
"Why's that? So you can go tell Sasuke?" Ino teased.
"Shut up Ino-pig."
"You first Forehead."
The two than went right back to where they started.
Hinata shook her head as she laughed. Those two were never going to change.
She said a quick goodbye to Sakura and Ino and headed home.
As Hinata walked home she thought about Naruto. She was so happy that he was writing again. She never realized the hardships of being famous. She always thought it was great. Although Naruto was writing again, she was still a little worried about him actually going through with it and performing his song. Hinata wished she knew a way to give him that final push.
Than Hinata stopped dead in her tracks as a smile crept across her face.
She might not be able to help Naruto but maybe Mystery could.
Hinata took off into a sprint. If she started now, she could have everything done by Friday.
