"Sir! Mistress it hurt, please help!" cried a young girl who busted into the room. She was between 4 to 6 and wore a teal kimono with pink and white lilies on it. She had long brown hair that was pulled back intoa braid. Her eyes were lavender and full of worry.
"Tsukila! What happened?" asked Kohaki as he rushed to th egirl. "Mistress! I went out on an errand and when I came back, she.... she's not moving! I can't tell if she's breathing or not." The young girl cried.
'Take us to her!" yelled Kakashi. Tsukila ran out the door with Kakashi, Sasuke, and Naruto behind him. "Kohaki, go to the medicine place and get some herbs." said Sakura. Kohaki nodded and ran off.
"MIstress!" called Tsukila. They were running toward the eastern village gate. "Hurry!" urged Tsukila, even though she was barely keeping up to the others.
Up ahead, in a secluded, forested area was a small hut. There was nothing decorative about it, just a plain hut like the ones back at the Konohagakure village.
"Mistress!" cried Tsukila. She flung open the door. It was plain as it was inside as it was outside. The floor was packed dirt, the walls were thin peices of wood,the roof was just straw tied tightly together. There were a few minature tables on which papers were on, and a couch.
In the middle of the room, sprawled out by a small table with scattered papers all around, was a girl. She was dressed in a long sleeved, overly baggy shirt that reached just blow her waist. It was pulled up with a thick, glossy belt. Under it were a pair of skin-tight, minishorts. She also had on black boots. Her nails were painted a sapphire green (a shiny metallic greenish teal color) but that was all the makeup shewore except for a light coat of dark green eye shadow that matched her shirt, and that was tipped off with some black eyeliner.
A mess of dirty blonde hair rested about her head. Her eyes were closed and her limbs were lifeless. "Mistress!" cried Tsukila. She ran over and knelt by the girl. "Mistress! Wake up!" she cried. In two strides, Kakashi was by the girl's side and felt for a pulse. "She's still alive." he said. He put a hand over her mouth momentarily. "Still breathing," He looked around. "No blood, no sign of a struggle. Is this how you found her?" Kakashi asked. Muffling her whimpers, Tsukila nodded.
The girl coughed. "Mistress!" Her eyes fluttered open. "Tsukila-chan?" she asked. Tsukila nodded eagerly. Kakashi helped the girl up. "Who are they?" she asked.
'She's already on her guard?' Sasuke pondered.
"They came to help! I came home and you were dead! I was so scared! I ran all the way to the town center to get help and they came! Mistress!!" Tsukila dived into the girl's arms and wept. The girl smiled down lovingly. "It's okay, Tsukila-chan. Shh... I'm fine."
"What happene to you? You were blacked out and now you're perfectly fine after a few minutes?" Naruto asked.
The girl looked at him. An ice-cold chill ran up Naruto's spine. "What is your name?" she asked. Another chill ran up his spine. "N... naruto..." he whispered. She nodded to him. "And you?" she asked the others. "I'm Sakura, this is Master Kakashi, our sensai. And this is Sasuke." The girl nodded again. "Pleased to meet you. My name is Kisuna." A chhill ran up Naruto's spine again...
'Kisuna? But that's...' Kakashi halted in the middle of his thought. "What happened to you?" Kakashi asked.
"It was this blasted bottle." Kisuna said as she picked up a black bottle and held it up. Her eyes glazed a bit and she blacked out onto the floor. "Mistress!"
