Disclaimer: No reviews. Hey, that's okay. I don't givva crap. P I don't own Naruto, just the witch girl. And her boyfriend…And anyone else I decide to throw in ;;

Ch. 2
A Witch in Konoha?

"Augh…." The witch girl murmured, staggering into the city that was nearest to her own: Konoha. It was early morning, and everyone was jostling everyone else as the kept a close eye on everything around them. She sighed. Why wasn't her city like this one? Happy, colorful…It just wasn't that way. She noticed that some of the people were kids that were walking on their way to school.

She spotted one group: a kid with a bright orange jumper, a girl with pink hair, and a boy…

A boy with empty eyes.

They all wore headbands that signaled they were ninjas. The kid in the orange jumper was talking to the pink haired girl. The boy with empty eyes had spotted her.

Their eyes met. A bead of sweat trickled down the side of her face. He remained calm; but how could she? She had destroyed her whole town. Including her love..the silver haired boy…

"Hey Sasuke, what are you looking at?" She heard the pink haired girl ask. The kid in the orange jumper turned to look at Sasuke, then to look at what he was looking at.

"OH MY JEEZES, THERE'S A WITCH IN KONOHA!" the kid yelled. Every suddenly froze, all eyes on her.

Her gaze didn't faulter. "Please…help me…" She murmured, barely audiable. Sasuke heard her, however. Her grip on the pole that was holding her up slackened. Her eyes closed, and she fell to the ground.


When her eyes finally opened, moonlight was filtering through the window, contrasting with her skin. "…Where am I?" she asked no one in particular.

"My house," a voice responded.

She glanced around, spotting Sasuke in the corner. "How'd I get here?"

He chuckled dryly. "I carried you to school; the nurse tended to your wounds. She called in Sakura and Ino to take you to Sakura's house during lunch to change your clothes –which were charred, might I add. So, they took you back to school, and the nurse finished tending to your injuries. She asked (out of Me, Naruto, and Sakura) who could take you home. Sakura said her parents wouldn't allow it, and Naruto said he'd do something to you if he did Here, the girl blushed, so that left me. What's your name?"

She blinked, absorbing all the information before saying, "My name is Kuriaki. You're Sasuke."

"I'm sorry about Naruto," he continued, ignoring her answer. "He's so immature. The thing is…we're not used to seeing witches around here."

"Oh." She looked out at the moon. "Did you change my bandages?" She looked down at her arms, where there were thick black symbols.

"We tried," Sasuke told her, tossing her a package of bandages. "But everytime we touched your skin, it felt like we were burning on the inside."

Kuriaki chuckled. "At least I know they're in effect," she muttered to no one as she wrapped the gauze around her left arm. She completed that small task, and moved on to her other arm.

After a long awkward silence, Kuriaki said, "I guess I'll go back to sleep." She tore the excess bandage with her teeth, tucking the end of the bandage underneath the other strands of cloth. "G'night." She laid back down on her pillows.

She looked at the moon, a small smile crossing her lips. They say people who sleep under the moon's rays become lunatics. She shook her head, closing her eyes. Too late. I already am.


Kuriaki was munching on a waffle the next morning. Sasuke had already left for school, but he left her breakfast.

She was staring outside, looking at the streets. "Hmm….What can I do between now and lunch?"

There weren't many options. People were working; the only ones out on the streets were the females and babies, shopping for groceries or for clothing.

Looking down at the sweatpants and tank top she was wearing, she made a face. "I'm not wearing this," she muttered. She got up, walking out of Sasuke's house.

She walked down the street, glancing at the shops. Haulting suddenly, she stared at a roll of purple silk. She glanced around, entering the shop. The owner glared at her.

"What do you want?" he snarled.

"The roll of purple silk," she responded, unphased by his rudeness.

He snorted. "I don't think so."

Kuriaki tossed something onto the counter. It was a coin made of pure gold. It was worth more than enough to get the silk. "I'll take a white tank top, too."

"Of course, of course," he said, bowing repeatedly. He scurried over to get the silk, and then the white tank top. "Anything else?"

"The black shoes," she replied, motioning toward the black shoes behind him. She took her purchases, smiled at him, and left the store.

Kuriaki sauntered into the house, stretching. She walked into the bedroom, flopping onto the futon. She sat Indian style, and pulled out the silk.


Hearing the door close, Kuriaki quickly folded up the silk she was using, and put it into the bag. Then, she stuffed it under the bed, and threw herself under the covers.

Her heart skipped a beat when she felt the end of the bed sink lower.

"Hey," she heard Sasuke say, lightly shaking her shoulder. "Get up. Naruto, Sakura, Ino, and I want you to have lunch with us."

She sat up, acting groggy. "Mm…'Kay," she said.

"Oh..And, Sensai wants you to come with me to school."

"NANI?" She blinked repeatedly. "Why?"

"He thinks you'd be a big help on our team."

"Oi vei….Sure. Why not." Sarcasim.

Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Whatever. Can't say I didn't try. Now, let's go."


Author's Notes: I'd appreciate reviews! Anyways, I love writing this story. It just pops into my head as I go.

If I'm making Sasuke act all wrong, tell me.

Ciao!
