She couldn't see a thing. The wind whipped in her face while the dying fire gave off bursts of heat. Snow started to fall and soon she was caught in the onslaught of the blizzard. She had lost her way and she felt so alone. She called out the name of the one she thought she loved. "SASUKE! SASUKE! HELP ME…" She whimpered. Would he leave her here to die?

He could always tell her what happened later…
