Chapter 10:

—Valley of Lost Souls—

As the team leaps from tree to tree, naruto became peculiar about the place where they've been headed.

"Hey Shikamaru?"

Shikamaru lazily looked at naruto while he continues to soar. "What is it?"

"What kind of place are we going to?"

his eyes narrowed "huh, You mean you don't know? Do you listen to the Briefing about this mission yesterday?"

The bids chirp…

Naruto sweat dropped. "Y—yes, but I kinda forgot..hehe" Naruto smirk.

All of them sighed coedly. "Well, we've been ordered to go to a nearby forest in the eastern region of konoha" Shikamaru lazily Explained.

"I see…"

"But I far as I've heard, its not your average full of trees forest…" Neji calmly added.

"What do you mean?" Kiba asked.

"they say, long before the first shinobi war, that place is used to be a battle ground among great shinobi's and thousand of ninja died in that forest" Neji explicate his fellow members.

"And along that forest lye's an enormous valley full of treacherous cliffs and craters. It has also thousand of geysers streaming around that area."

"They called it….valley of lost souls" Neji dauntingly said.

"Scary name…." Choji respond.

"Why do they call it that way?" Kiba asked Neji.

"They say no one ever returned once they entered the forest…."

Kiba gulped. "h—hey guys mayb—" Naruto interrupted him.

"It's only a name, how far could that place be bad?" Naruto respond.

Shikamaru looked at naruto with a glare. "See for yourself…"

All of them looked forward; they instantly stopped because of what they've witness. They're eyes widen on disbelief.

Naruto loudly said. "d-don't tell me—"

Shikamaru coldly said. "yes, that's the place…."

All of the trees we're dead, The place was covered by a layer of miasma, the skies were gloomingly pitch dark, dozens of lightning spark from the skies. And you can feel a very eerie felling that somebody was watching you always. Not your typical forest.

Neji coldly said.

"Its name really suits this place very well….the valley of lost souls"
