Alright, I'm writing this a mere… 30 seconds after the last one!

Remember, this one is Hinata, Sakura and Ino, so… Enjoy! Oh, and not from the beginning. (This one's going to be creepy, I assure you... No… Adult… Stuff though… Don't groan! I only rated it T for goodness sake!)

More numbers!

Hinata opened her eyes slowly, and stretched. She was on a heavenly soft bed, with a fluffy comforter, she couldn't be anymore comfortable… Except…

"NARUTO!" She screamed as she sat up.

She quickly glanced around her. The whole room was dark, and she could hear water… A brook, or something? No, a fountain? Where was she?

She heard a groan from beside her.

"Sakura?" Hinata asked quickly. "Sakura? Is that you?"

"No, Ino," Ino said, climbing out of her equally soft bed, and shrieked, jumping back in. "There's something… Something on the floor. It's cold."

"Water?" Hinata asked.

"No, if it was water, it would have froze by now," Ino said.

A light shone from somewhere to Hinata's left, and she turned, only to come face to face with Sakura.

Hinata shrieked from surprise, and she fell out of bed, onto the freezing floor.

Indeed, there was something freezing flowing over the floor, but as Ino had said, if it was water, it would be ice.

She jumped back into the bed, covering herself with the comforter.

She wasn't wet, but shivering. The cold soon went away, and she took in the fact that she wasn't in her pajamas anymore, but in a small gown. Like pajamas, but too tight to sleep in.

"You noticed too?" Sakura asked, making the small flame in her hand bigger. "Where do you think we are?"

"I don't know," Ino said, glancing around in the dark room.

Sakura, Ino and Hinata screamed as something cracked, and the whole room was filled with light from one end of the room. Hinata uncovered her face cautiously to see a warm, inviting fire where the crack had sounded.

It illuminated the dark room, and Hinata saw three beds, side by side, all a dark, velvety red. The whole room seemed like it was out of a dark fantasy, or a vampire movie. It had an elegant chandelier hanging from the middle of the dark ceiling. The walls and roof were painted dark, maybe black. The only things that were light in the whole room were the three shivering forms on the beds, and the fire.

A rectangle of bright, surgically white light spilled into the room from a spot beside the fireplace.

The rectangle was interrupted only for a second, and it disappeared.

A deep, smooth voice came from the far end of the room. "Ladies, if you'll please follow me."

Ino, Sakura and Hinata all looked at each other, terrified. What was this person going to do?

Sakura acted first. She slowly climbed out of the bed, pulling her gown down as far as it would go. Hinata and Ino followed suit, pulling their gowns down as well. The cold feeling had disappeared from the floor, leaving it relatively warm.

The rectangle in the wall opened back up, and the three girls walked out first, and the other person closed the door behind them. They looked around the hall. It was empty and silent. The bright white was so intense that they had to cover their watering eyes until they got used to it.

Ino turned around, and saw the person who had come in and escorted them out. Her jaw dropped. Who knew there was such… Such… Perfection in the male species?

Sakura noticed next, and Hinata blushed a deep scarlet when she saw him.

He had long brown hair, tied back in an elegantly loose ponytail. His eyes were more blue (If possible) than Naruto's. His teeth were perfectly straight, and when he smiled, the three teenagers giggled like schoolgirls. He was tall and had a graceful figure. He wore a simple white collared shirt, and black pants, with shiny black shoes. He stood behind them with his hands in his pockets, and a small smile on his face.

Ino could tell that he was a ninja. Only ninja's could get a form like that.

Dayam! Ino thought. He's one nice piece of…

"If you ladies would follow me, we will get some food. I'm guessing you're all hungry?"

As though on cue, Ino, Hinata and Sakura's stomach's growled with anticipation.

"I'll take that as a yes," He smiled, and three hearts melted like chocolate in the sun.

He led them down another equally bright hallway.

"So, why are we here?" A strangely brave Hinata asked the man.

"Huh?" He turned his head, but kept walking. "Oh, don't you remember?" He asked calmly.

No, that's why she's asking, Ino thought.

"Remember what?" Sakura asked. "What happened?"

"Well, if you don't remember, then I can't tell you," He said, turning right, then left. He led them down stairs that looked as though they were from a medieval castle. Torches led the way down the dark, stone steps. "We're about to approach the masters sleeping quarters, so please stay quiet."

Ino, Sakura and Hinata all closed their mouths tight, and even tried to make their breathing quieter. Something was wrong, and they could feel it. The feeling of this new, darker hallway was sinister and full of pain, anguish and death.

Sakura noticed a door at the end of the hall, and they were walking closer, closer. Finally, they reached the door, and the man stopped.

He turned around, and pushed each of the girls to the ground (Not one of them resisted, the hallway was so creepy!)

"Stay laying down, and down scream or cry out when the door opens, just stay still and quiet," He said, his smile still in place, but a mixture of concern was intertwined with it.

He raised his hand and knocked three times, then he ducked down as the door flew open and a kunai, larger than Hinata, Ino and Sakura had ever worked with, several shuriken, and even a katana hurdled out the door, landing halfway down the long hallway.

"Oh," A deep voice growled from within the dark that made up the room inside. "You call upon me, Keiji? Knowing that I was asleep? Bring forth what you have to offer, or leave now, holding your head in place."

"Sir," The man named Keiji answered the deep voice. "I have brought you the prisoners."

Prisoners? Ino, Hinata and Sakura thought.

"Leave them," The voice growled. "Keep an eye out for the quarry. Leave, now."

"Yes, sir," Keiji left without another word.

As soon as the door up the dingy stairs had slammed, the voice rang out again.

"Come in," It purred. It sounded somewhat content. That's what scared the girls. "I need to tell you why we've brought you here."

Hinata, Ino and Sakura walked cautiously into the dark room, taking each footstep as carefully as though they were walking on thin ice.

They could tell something bad was going to happen, but not so soon.

Back to Naruto, Sasuke and Neji.

123456789098765432123456789098765432123456789098765432123456789098765432

"What the hell?" Sasuke said. "The Forest of Xenzumyguem and Xenzumumt? That's only in legends."

"Oh yeah," Neji said. "I've heard of it before. It was an old, old tale from back when my great-great-grandfather was our age. He told my great-grandfather, who told my grandfather, who told me. I remember it now. That story always gave me the chills. But it's back? I thought that someone had sealed it away long ago?"

Sasuke nodded. "I remember my mother telling me. She said not to worry, because it was gone, and never coming back," Sasuke glanced behind him at the snap of a twig. "My brother said that he'd love to find it and open it back up."

Neji stared at him.

"You don't think…?"

"No, definitely not. I can tell my brother isn't behind this."

Naruto was doing his best to keep up.

"So… So," Naruto stuttered. "This forest thing was sealed up, and then it was reopened recently?"

"I'm guessing so," Sasuke said.

"That's the dumbest name I've ever heard!" Naruto started laughing. "The Forest of Xenzumyguem and Xenzumumt. Wow! I'm scared now!"

"You haven't heard?" Neji asked Naruto.

"Heard what?" Naruto asked, stopping his laughing instantly.

"That language. The language…" Neji said, giving Naruto shivers.

"T-The language?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah, it's the language of all. It was the first, and the most evil. It's said that if you mispronounce some of the words, you'll die," He said.

"Whoa," Naruto said. "Man, if we could only get some of our enemies to say some of those words wrong…" Naruto started.

"Only if you want to die, too," Sasuke said. "It's also said that if one mispronounces the words, everyone within a certain radius of them will die as well."

Naruto stared at Sasuke, openmouthed.

"Why would anyone want to speak that language? That's horrible! What if you were teaching it to your kids, and they mispronounced a word? Would you die?"

"Only one person knows the language currently, and it's illegal, if not, forbidden to teach it to anyone under the age of 26."

"26…" Naruto said. "That… is just… Strange… So, wait, how do you two know so much about this?"

"My mom," Sasuke answered, starting to walk forwards.

"And my Grandfather," Neji said, dragging Naruto along with him, following Sasuke.

"Can you both understand he language or something?" Naruto asked.

"No," Sasuke and Neji both answered.

"Well, do you know what 'Xenzumyguem and Xenzumumt' mean?" He asked. Now he was so curious it was actually starting to get on his nerves.

"No," Neji repeated.

"I do, but only those two words," Sasuke gasped. "Oh no, we shouldn't have come. 'Xenzumyguem and Xenzumumt' means 'Combination and combining.' The Forest of combination and combining! We have to leave!"

Ooh… Okay, well, that really didn't give anything away, but it's getting there… It's getting there…

REVIEW, PEOPLE, REVIEW!

Anyways… I'm writing the next chapter already, so no long waits…
