Ok, thanks for the awesome reviews! And I would like you to do something for me. I want you to all yell at me in your reviews so that I'll update more quickly! It's pathetic how long I keep you guys waiting! Absolutely pathetic of me. Anyway, Thanks.

On with the chap!

(Naruto)

I decided I would go to Gaara after we ate our dinner, which he gave us. I was going to get to the bottom of this 'Noyora' person. It just had been bothering me, a lot. All I could think about was both Ino, and Noyora.

I approached the door, and was about to knock, when it opened.

"Oh, Naruto? Right?" Asked a blond kunoichi. She looked tired, and as if she really wanted to go to sleep. This was Temari, and I was lucky she wasn't irritated or mad.

"Uh, yeah, I'm Naruto. Um, is Gaara in?" I asked. I really didn't want to get on her bad side.

She nodded.

"Get some rest Temari" Gaara told her from behind.

I scooted out of the door way so she could get out of Gaara's office. She looked beat, and she walked sluggishly but quickly, I think she wanted to get to bed. I went inside the office as she went down the hall.

"What can I do for you?" Gaara asked.

I fidgeted; me and Gaara were pretty good comrades, but I didn't want him to get angry.

"You see, I found this grave," I began, "And I wanted to look up who it belonged to." He nodded. He got up from his desk, and went over to the book shelf

"Name?"

"Noyora," I told him.

"I meant last name", he grumbled.

"According to the grave she doesn't have a last name." I told him.

He looked up. From the look he gave me, I could tell he didn't want to deal with anything complicated.

"How important is this to you?" He asked.

I considered, and thought for a moment.

"Pretty important I can't get her out of my head. I don't know why but-"

He cut me off by slamming the book closed.

"Go to the library, and give her this," He gave me a scroll that looked old, and antique. Like the map.

"She will let you into the records of Suna. Go to 'Records of People' look for this girl there." He instructed. I did as I was told, and ran to the library, happy that Gaara let me look for this random girl.

(At the Records of People)

N, N… N… Ah-ha! N!

Wow, such a miraculous thing: you found N. considering your name begins with N.

I ignored the fox's rude comment. I knew he had to come out sometime. He had been quiet ever since Ino got possessed. But he's back now… yay. (Sarcasm)

(2 hours later)

I had been looking for a long time. And so far, I hadn't found a thing. I was beginning to think she had a last name, but it wasn't put on the grave.

(1 more hour after those 2 hours)

"HEY! GET UP!"

"GAH!" I screamed.

I promptly fell out of my chair. I got up immediately and looked around. Apparently, I had fallen asleep.

"Glad you're finally up." A soft, feminine voice told me. She sounded relieved.

"What?" I asked. I looked around again, no one was here.

"Please, follow me."

"What? Who are you? How am I supposed to follow you, if I can't see you?"

"No one is able to see me… can they…?"

I was about to shake my head, when I added all these things up.

A voice coming from no where; and a voice that said 'No one is able to see me'. There were only two things to add up…

But I only needed one to get the message: GHOST!

"GAH! SAKURA! NEJI! SOMBODY! HELP! GHOST!"

"No, wait. Please! I don't mean you any harm,"

"Yes you do!"

"No, I don't. I promise."

I didn't believe the thing that was talking to me. The girl ghost that was talking to me seemed innocent, but heck, I ain't taking my chances! I have been on a few missions that had to do with a ghost, and both of them were creepy! I once got eaten alive in one of those missions!

Kyuubi! Why didn't you tell me there was a ghost here?

"I'm a demon, not a ghost hunter. Plus, ghosts don't have chakra, scent, or even body mass. No ninja or ninja dog could ever find it, even if it was standing right in front of them. "

BUT YOU'RE A DEMON!

"Did your thick head not hear me? Ninja's dogs, animals, or any living thing, cannot see ghosts on there own. Ghosts need to come out on their own. And that does include demons. We can't see them either.

Whatever, I had enough of a lesson today; I'm getting out of here!

"Ghosts can let you touch, hear, and see; them at their own free will. They can't do damage to living beings, but they can move you sometimes, if that ghost builds up its strength for a few years… A.k.a. kid, look around again."

And I did, all I could see was dark bulks. I could see no exit.

NO! WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY ALL THIS!?

It dawned on me, that I had been oblivious me, and failed to see there were no ways out. I was sitting, with a ghost, in a place, that I didn't know of. I didn't even know what this ghost was doing! The ghost took me here, how? Did it have incredible strength like Sakura? Probably not, it probably dragged me here using some freaky ghost power.

"I mean, ghosts are real, and this one seems to have stumbled upon you. And it took you somewhere, where you can't get away. Now calm down."

WHY!? HOW THE HECK SHOULD I DO THAT! AND WHY, I'M IN A ROOM WITH A DEAD PERSON!

"Because, like I said before, they can't do damage, they can just move you, and only if they have saved the strength for a couple years. Are you that thick headed? This ghost is going to communicate with you! Now, go and talk to it, so I can sleep.

Wait you're LEAVING ME!?

Kyuubi?

Nothing answered. I was going to have to tough it out on my own.

I cleared my throat, I felt very cold here. But, my throat was bone dry.

"Hi, uh, ghosty. Hi. Um, I'm Naruto Uzamaki."

I heard a gasp of delight.

"You're not frightened? You can see me?"

"Oh, uh. Well." I spluttered.

"Oh," She sighed sadly. "You want to go?"

"Wait? You're sad?" I asked in disbelief.

Weren't ghosts supposed to be happy to capture people?

"Well, yes." It admitted.

"Oh," I answered quietly.

So, why was it here? Why did it take me here?

"Why are you here? And more to the point; why did you take me here?" I asked, more politely than intended. But I decided that was good, since she was pretty much the only one who knew the way out.

"I saw you today. In the grave yard. I wanted to know if you could help." It answered. It's tone was sweet, and gentle. It almost sounded like a ghost of Hinata, except, it was hollower, and less shy. In fact the voice sounded more nervous then shy.

"Can you let me see you?" I asked.

"No, people aren't supposed to see me."

"Huh? But Kyu- I mean people says ghosts can let living people see them willingly."

"I never heard of that. Are you sure?" It asked.

"I think so. Why don't you try it?"

There was a pause. And then a ripple seemed to go through the air. A fuzzy shape appeared. It was light, and cloudy. I could see through it, but it slowly gained more color, and more form, until it looked like a girl. I could still see through her, but I could at least see it… her.

Her face looked strained, and pained, but it relaxed. She opened her eyes.

Her eyes were grey; she had silver hair that went down to her mid-back. She wore a white robe.

"How do I look?"

"What?

"I said: How do I look, what do I look like?"

"Oh, uh, you look pretty. You have silver hair, which goes to your back, and your eyes are gray."

She nodded and smiled.

"Thanks. I'm guessing I can't even see myself when someone can't see me." She put her hands in front of her as if she had just regenerated them after a long wait.

"Ok, so why am I here?" I asked again.

"Oh, sorry." She said grinning. She looked a lot more happy now. Still gentle, but happy.

"I am Eiko. What's your name? –Oh, wait. You told me. It was Naruto, right?"

I nodded dumbly.

"I am 1014 and a half years old. How about you?"

"1014?" I cried.

"And a half." She added.

"Ok, well I'm 16. Why am I here?" I repeated.

"Oh, sorry again, I keep getting of subject." She smiled and giggled.

But then she looked grim.

"I have been following you around a bit. And from the conversation you and your friends had while you ate. You're looking for something. A medicine, if I'm right?"

"Yeah, what about it?" I asked.

"Well, let me start from the beginning. I died about 1000 years ago. I died at the age of 14. My cousin was murdered. Before she died, we had promised each other to always be there for each other. Basically we were best friends. And nobody could tear us apart. That is until she died. She was about 20. It was so long ago, I forget. I committed suicide a month later. Losing her was so painful; I didn't know why I was in the world. But instead of following her to heaven (Afterlife, whatever you guys want to call it) I stayed on earth. I stayed by her grave day and night, trying to figure out a way to be with her again. But I didn't have any luck. Eventually, I just started to explore, and hope I would find her. But I never did."

"So what does this have to do with me?" I asked.

"You approached her grave." She said simply.

"Noyora!? That's your cousin?" I cried.

She nodded. She wasn't smiling, and she wasn't frowning. She looked emotionless. Trying to avoid any pain.

"I'm sorry, but I don't know how to help you right now." I told her.

"What? You have to! I need to go where she is! I have to!" She cried.

"I'm sorry, but I'm not dead." I said.

Her body shook, and she began to cry. She didn't make a sound, but she was sobbing. I approached her slowly, and I reached out to her. My hand went through her, but then she pulled away. She became more solid looking, and she flung herself at me and cried: "But I need her!"

She needed comfort. She obviously hadn't gotten any for a long time. As I stroked her hair, and soothed her, I made a promise.

"Eiko, I promise, I'll help you find Noyora. That's my way of the ninja, I will help you. I promise. Even if I have to stay behind when I'm dead, I'll help you."

She eased her shaking a bit, and turned back into her clear self, so no one could touch her.

"Th-th… Thank you." She said.

"No problem." I responded.

But she was gone.

"Naruto, you're in the grave yard, I'm sorry for taking you here, but I thought I might need some proof. Now go home, back to your friends." She instructed.

"But there are some questions I need to ask you!" I tried to tell her.

But no one was there.

I started to walk back to the hotel we were all staying at. Thinking, if it was all a dream or not. A ghost came to visit me. I'm afraid of ghost's, and yet, I talked to her. I even called her an it before. It seemed to be all an illusion, but then again, I promised Eiko, and I keep my promises.

No matter what.

Sorry it took so long to update. Please review! They are all awesome…
