Chapter 2 – A Totally Weird Meeting

The dazzling glow stung my eyes and I shut them as if I was looking at the smoldering sun, frightened it would damage my eyes. Suddenly the atmosphere around me felt chilly, and goose bumps appeared on the surface of my skin, making me shiver.

The gravity around me began to pressure me and it was so tense I couldn't move a muscle, not a single one. It felt as if I was being wrapped around tightly with white bandages like those Egyptian mummies about to be put into their coffin after they died.

Unexpectedly, the speed at which I was falling increased greatly each second and I was falling faster than an airplane crashing. I could hear my heart beating against my chest in fear and I was afraid it would rip my flesh apart, leaving me for dead.

It seemed like forever since I have been in this dimensional place, but I could feel the pace slowing a bit after awhile or so and I swallowed my saliva through my parched throat, making me feel a little better. A more intense radiance hit my eyes, which allowed me to know that I was somewhere because I suddenly felt warmth, and caused me to open my eyes.

"Guh!" I screamed as I tried to cover my eyes.

I saw a sun…I'm positively sure I saw a sun. That red burning ball that planets circulate around. That sun. I'm in a place somewhere. But I was still falling…yep…falling. Wait a minute…FALLING?! Oh my god, I'm going to hit the ground!!

I saw a bulky sea green forest below me and my eyes widened at the sight. Oh my god!! Is this how I'm going to die!?

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" I screamed so loud that the nearby birds flew further from me, trying to avoid the piercing cries.

---3 minutes before (Third Person Point of View)--

"Today's mission is to pick up the trash. I chose this mission yesterday since I knew Naruto would complain. Too bad it rained yesterday…well be careful," A silvered haired man ran his fingers through his silky hair and jumped onto a nearby tree to read an orange book entitled, "Icha Icha Paradise."

A certain blonde boy mumbled, "All Kakashi-sensei does is read that dirty porn book all day doing nothing…lazy ass…"

"Naruto, I only hear you talking. More work, less talk I say." Kakashi chuckled and continued to read his little "book."

A minute later, Kakashi could hear someone yelling, "Ahhh!!" He furrowed his right eyebrow and said, "Naruto, don't complain anymore…"

"Nani? What are you talking about?" Naruto asked in a puzzled tone, giving Kakashi a pouted look.

"You know what I mean…the 'Ahhh.!!' Don't think you can fool me," he sighed and looked down at Naruto, who looked up at him with sea blue eyes mixed with confusion and innocence.

"I wasn't doing anything like that!!! How dare you accuse me like that!!?" Naruto pointed accusingly at the teacher.

"Fine, I'll believe you this time, just don't do it again." Kakashi refocused his attention to his book.

"Ahhh!!" The sound was closer now.

"Naruto! Didn't I tell you to stop it!?" Naruto was getting on his nerves today; he would be the only one who would want to do that to him.

"What am I doing?!" Naruto crossed his arms in frustration, and tapped his left foot against the muddy area impatiently.

"That screaming! If it wasn't you it must be you Sakura!" Kakashi looked at Sakura, who shook her head.

"Sasuke?" Kakashi saw Sasuke giving him death glares which obviously meant, "Why the hell do you think I would scream for?"

He mumbled an inaudibly 'fine' and continued to read.

"AHHH!!!" it was louder this time, which made his ear twitch.

"Where is that screaming coming from!? I'm trying to read my favorite part!" He looked at where his students were working, which was right below him. No, they were working and not screaming. He looked to his right, then to his left. "What the hell…?" He scratched his head.

"Not left, right, or down…don't tell me…above?" He looked up and his eye widened to see a falling girl heading his way.

--Akari's POV--

"AHHH!!!" I screamed louder than before. "Help me!!!"

I crashed into the man, causing both of us to fall down into the puddle of mud. I sat up, trying to get the mud off of my face with the back of my hands. "Ugh…mud…" I shook my hand ferociously to get the mud off my hands. Then the scene replayed in my mind. Oh yeah! A man saved me!!

I turned my head to the right and saw a masked man with mud in his hair. I giggled as some trickled down his face, but why was I laughing? I was in the same situation as him! Baka Akari!

I stood up quickly before the man in front of me and bowed many times, sending mud flying all over the place from my hair. I heard him say,

"Stop, stop! Why are you even bowing?" He wiped the mud off the same way I did, and I smiled, "You saved me! You know, I was falling from the sky and then you caught me! Thanks to you I'm saved!"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Back it up ma'am…When did I save you? You crashed into me and we both fell into the mud. I don't remember saving you during that process," he furrowed his eyebrow in confusion.

I sat back down and his eye widened. "What?" I cocked my head sideways and looked at his surprised face.

"What?" I stared at his shocked face intensely. What's up with this guy? He's freaking me out!!

"Excuse me for my rudeness, but…" he lifted me up with his muscular arms and dropped me recklessly to the dirt, which hurt a lot. I rubbed my butt and yelled, "What was that for?!"

He kneeled over an orange book and wiped off the mud. "Poor book," I heard him murmured.

"Poor book!? Look at me!!" I pointed at myself with my index finger of my right hand.

"You don't know how much these books cost…I had to save up a lot of money for this!" he continued to wipe the mud off.

"Hmph!" I crossed my arms and looked away in anger.

Two boys and one girl stared at me in amazement. I could tell from their faces that they were probably wondering why I fell from the sky. Haha, it's not like I was sky diving!

I stood up once again and tried to remove most of the mud off. After I guess about a good 25 minutes, I walked up back to them and spoke up to break their silence.

"Excuse me, I think I'm lost or something…You see I was in my room and this ghost came out of no where when there was this black out…" I scratched my head, "and this ghost told me someone needed me and then I went through this some kind of dimensional wrap. That's why I fell from the sky. Now don't think I was sky diving or anything, but this really happen!"

Great, just great. I just had to start off by making myself sound crazy. I saw that three of them were looking at each other with perplexed looks and rolled their eye(s).

"I'm not crazy! Really…I'm not…" Tears streamed down my cheeks. Where was I? I'm in an unknown place with people dress weirdly and plus, why were weird things happening to me?

"You know…that we don't believe a single word you're saying right…?" the pink haired girl gazed into my eyes with disbelief. But when I look into her jade eyes, I could see more than disbelief…she was laughing at me inside. No doubt, she thought I was crazy. Plain crazy.

I looked at the raven haired boy. He obviously didn't care a thing I said and the silvered haired man was more interested in the orange book than me. My only hope was the blonde boy, and when I turned my head, our eyes met. His eyes stuck on me, but his eyes weren't the same as the pink haired one. It was the eyes of sympathy, the eyes that cared about me. That instant when I met his eyes, I knew he suffered a dreadful life.

How did I know? He had the identical eyes that Hioshi had, the eyes of loneliness. Yes, he definitely felt the feeling of loneliness. I stood up and headed towards the blonde. I felt the eyes of those other three staring at my muddy back, dripping down my clothes. I was about a head taller than him and I kneeled down, hugging him in my arms. My cold, pallid arms.

"Whoa, whoa!! What are you doing!? Eck! My mouth has mud in it! Hey, stop it!!" he moved my hands away from him, spitting out the mud. "EWW! Yuck!"

I smiled, feeling color returning to my face. "Kawaii!!" I hugged him again. "You're so kawaii!!"

"Kawaii…?" I heard them say simultaneously in a high pitch.

"Isn't he cute?!" My grip around him tightened.

"Hey, hey!!" The pinked one yelled, "You're suffocating him!! Let him go!!"

I looked down to see the poor boy turning blue. "Gomen nasai!!" I screamed and let go of him rapidly.

I saw him inhale air into his lungs, allowing his face to turn back to its original color.

"I know I'm cute and everything, but don't kill me because I have a dream to fulfill!"

"Dream…? What is that?" I asked curiously, for I had a dream myself that I seem to think that I will never reach.

"To become a Hokage, so the villagers finally acknowledge my existence!"

"Hokage…? What the hell is that!?" Man, this place is making me crazy now.

"The highest ninja rank in Konoha…" the raven haired one finally spoke.

"What?! Can you repeat that again? You, the one who has the hair of a parrot, say it again!"

"Hair…of a p-parrot!?" he clenched his fist so hard that I could see a vein on his forehead.

"Don't call Sasuke-kun that!!"

"Don't interfere in this big forehead…" I said through gritted teeth and heard her gasp.

"Now, now let's not fight here…" the one with silver hair motioned his hand up and down, a signal to calm down.

"I'm not talking to you scarecrow!! I want to know what this place is called!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs. The silver haired male looked at me in shock, but I ignored his reaction. This was really getting to my nerves; this whole thing was making my head dizzy, my chest burning with rage.

"It's called Konoha…the leaf village…" the blonde answered meekly.

"Konoha…leaf…?" I turned around and fell to the floor, hurting my butt again. Konoha leaf right…? Did I hear it right? My hands moved up to my necklace, shaking with disbelief, and took off the necklace. "Konoha Leaf" was engraved on it. No way…it can't be…this place is like way before the middle ages…was this a dream?!

"Hn. You seem shocked. Cat got your tongue?" The raven haired one sneered at me and I was about to cry, but instead I brought my knees up to my chin and stayed silent, not even noticing the tears silently dripping down my cheeks. I don't why I was crying, but for sure it was either tears of joy or tears of sadness because part of it was that I missed my parents badly even though I haven't been here for less than an hour. Plus, I truly believe that this place might have a connection to my past, which I dreadfully wish to know.

I looked up once in awhile at the four figures standing before me, their shadows covering the sunshine, and each one had a puzzled look, except for the boy who sneered at me. After the second time I looked up and my head drooped back down, I heard the crunching of leaves. Someone was walking closer to me and kneeled beside me.

"Hey…" I turned my head to the right to meet shimmering navy eyes. "You know I believe you, let me introduce myself. I'm Uzumaki Naruto, and here is Haruno Sakura-chan," he pointed at the pinked hair one, "and that one is Uchiha Sasuke."

I stood up and bowed mannerly to them as if they were guests to my parents' home. Naruto walked in front of me and grabbed my hand, taking me to the tall silvered hair man. "And…this is our sensei, Hatake Kakashi-sensei!"

I looked up nervously at him, for I only reached a little above his shoulders, and then quickly stared at the ground. "I'm sorry," I whispered, "I called you a scarecrow awhile ago…I know I'm hot-tempered so it's hard to keep my temper down when I want to…"

He cupped my chin and made me look up into his eye. "Hey, no worries, I'll just take you to the Hokage…"

I slapped his hand off and nodded, "Just don't touch me you pervert…" I turned around walking away from that man and then I noticed something.

"Err…what's a Hokage and how am I suppose to get there?"

"Are you stupid? What kind of ninja are you?" Sasuke slapped his forehead and sighed.

"Ninja…? Haha, wait I get it…it's all a joke right? Because ninjas don't exist anymore…" I chuckled anxiously with beads of sweat on my forehead.

"Are you kidding me? We're ninjas, ninjas are abundant here! You sure are weird…" Sakura smiled as if I was joking around.

"No, no! Ninjas don't exist!! They used to exist! There's no such thing as that! I'm sure there isn't and to prove it, mmk!" Kakashi covered my mouth with his right hand, allowing me to feel the soft fabric of his glove.

"Let's just go without any trouble miss…?" I grabbed his hand and pulled it off, "Kinomoto Akari…" I finished his sentence for him.

His eye widened, "Akari…?"

I nodded. I didn't know what's so surprising anyways. It's a really common name and all…

"Something wrong sensei?" Sakura asked as Naruto and Sasuke stared at his widened eye.

"Nothing, nothing…Let's go…" he grabbed my hand and dragged me along with him.

What the hell is going on!? Who's this Hokage I'm suppose to meet?

TBC
