Chapter 4

After three days total in the hospital I was let go of; they wanted to make sure I didn't suffer another attack like I had with the chakra, apparently I was spazing out and what not. Now I had to go find the Hokage's office who ever that was, I'm guessing that they are some high ranking person since people kept telling me that I had to go see the Hokage. Well at least the nurses were, I had to pay back the hospital and I wasn't getting any pay until that debt was paid. I think it was a good thing that they didn't tell me how much I cost them.

Now all I had was the clothes on my back(with a couple holes in them) and a piece of paper telling me the address of the office of the Hokage. I do remember that blonde told me that I had to work or her, maybe she was the Hokage or some one under them.

I had to ask a couple people where the office was to make sure that I was still on the right track, I got off of it a couple times.

When I finally got to the office that was up the billion plus flight of stairs I was suddenly nervous to be meeting the person that I was told to report to. It took me a few minutes or so to gather up enough courage to knock on the door. And when I did I heard from behind it, "Come in." and it sounded like blonde.

I opened the door and walked in hoping beyond god that I wouldn't make an ass of myself. I stood in front of a desk looking at blonde and I was betting that she was the one I was supposed to be looking for.

"Good you made it." said Blonde, "I never did tell you my name, it's Tsunade and I am the Hokage if you haven't already guessed. You will be working for me to pay off your bill to the hospital." I just nodded my head knowing that this was true that I had to work for her and so she went on, "Shizune will show you where things are at and you will begin work right away and here is your work schedule and where you will be staying at." Tsunade held out a piece of paper towards me so I took it.

As I was looking down at the paper I wondered if I could do all of it. Than another woman spoke she was taller than I was by a couple inches, I was only 5' 4", "You will follow me." I followed the woman who I was guessing was Shizune. She showed me around the large place that I was going to be working and who where my bosses during curtain times of the day, yeah this was going to be a fun life and I was betting I wouldn't be seeing any of the money that I made…ever.

I began work scrubbing floors all around the office area I got to play with orange smelling disinfectant as I scrubbed the floors clean and they seemed really, really dirty. I sat in the same all for thirty minutes before I needed to take a break before my brain cells died from the smell. I opened windows some so there would be some air flow before I started back up at work again. By the time that I got all of the floors scrubbed clean it was about ten at night. I had cleaned ever floor that I was told to and that was a lot of floors but I didn't just clean the floors I also had to pick up trash and clean other places like the bathroom and what not. So pretty much I was a cleaning lady for that huge office place every Monday and Friday. I was going to be working in hell.

Now I had to go find the place that I had to stay it was dark I didn't want to do that. I had no idea how to get around the town at least not yet any way I was going to soon since I was going to be a messenger girl on Wednesdays to every where in the town from Tsunade to the businesses and back. Sunday was the only day that I didn't work well I did I just worked half the day. On Saturdays I was going to work in the library, Tuesdays and Thursdays I was going to be working for Tsunade with anything that she wanted me to do like errands, cleaning, what ever it could even be her personal crap that she wanted me to do. Yep I was going to be working in a hell.

Well I picked up everything and put it away, than started to look at the piece of paper and try to figure out where the hell I was staying at and if I knew any of the streets near it and of course I didn't and no one was around I guess I was going to wonder around until I found the right street. It was going to be a long night if I had to do that.

I stepped on to the large stair case that lead from the top office all the way down to other levels and the ground on the outside of the building there where other stairs but I didn't want to find out what one where locked. As I was going down the stairs I slipped but caught myself. It took me a little bit before I kept walking down the stairs and I was going to be holding on to the railing a little tighter at least in the dark. Yes there where lights but they seemed to be far apart.

I finally made it down the rest of the stairs with out any other incident I felt glad that I did and picked another direction to go in. I wondered around the streets for a while until I spotted the girl that looked blind but wasn't so I went up to her sort of nervous/ shy and asked, "Um excuse me? Could you please tell me where this place is?"

"It's my house." she said shyly.

"Well that's interesting." I said surprised I had no idea that I would be staying with one of the first people I had met in that world and with that other creepy guy but I could deal with it, "Could you show me where your house is?"

"What? Yes. Please follow me." she seemed really nervous, maybe it was how I was dressed, I was wearing black pants that had two chains on them that made an X on the back and my shirt did have a skull on it that said, 'Love me! I'm a Pirate!' my hair was black, naturally brown, with green at the tips of it and it sort of covered one of my eyes. I also worn glasses but they were the geeky kind of glasses they where more the EMO kind of glasses that you see people wear.

Well I followed the girl to her house and I was nervous about walking into her house but I did and that was when the freaky man came to meet us.

"Hinata where have you been?" he demanded.

"I was out practicing father." she said very shyly almost like she was afraid to speak. I learned who the two people where sort of the girl was Hinata and scary man was her father.

"Who are you?" he asked of mer.

"I was sent her by the Hokage." I said and held out the paper that Shizune told me to give to the head of the house. He took it and looked it over and placed it in his sleeve and glared at me like I was some kind of threat, it scared the crap out of me. When he finally spoke it about jumped, "Can you do any cleaning?"

That was almost a dumb question to ask of me but I said, "Yes, I will have the most time to clean on Sunday afternoon's since that is when I wont be working for the Hokage, sir."

He just nodded his head and said, "Hinata you will give her a room to stay in." and with that he walked away, I was pretty grateful for that. I followed Hinata to where ever I was supposed to be going in that large house, I had a feeling that I was going to be working the rest of my waking life.

Hinata lead me to a small room which had a bed in it, and that was about it other than a small trunk. I turned to look at Hinata when she spoke, "You can use the trunk to hold your belongings and this room is yours now."

"Thanks, questions for you."

"Yes?" she asked what seemed slightly fearful.

"Okay, do I have to attend any meal?"

"No."

"Do I have to cook anything? Because if I have too you wont be getting much I am better at cleaning."

"No, you don't have to cook."

"Good and will your father? Ask me to do other things?"

"I think so."

"Okay thank you, oh I'll be leaving early tomorrow I have to go work in the large library, so if I have to be at anything I am really sorry but I have to work for the Hokage, if that's any kind of excuse at all." I felt really bummed that I had to live off of people that I didn't know I wondered how I was even going to make it.

Hinata gave me a small smile and I returned it and than she walked away I closed the door and laid down on the bed and I must have fallen asleep right away since morning came to fast for me. I was up by five by what my watch said and when I looked out the window of the small room the sun was starting to rise so I… well I combed my fingers through my hair since I didn't have a brush and I couldn't change my clothes, since I didn't have anything else to wear.

I walked out of my room and about ran into a person I felt stupid that I did he was taller than me like most guys are. He had long hair and the weird pupil less eyes that this family seemed to have. It was kind of creepy.

"Who are you?" he demanded, kind like Hinata's father.

"I slightly live here now I'm not really sure on all the details." I tried smiling but I couldn't put fourth the effort to make a smile so I said, "I need to get going I have a job I need to get to." and I walked past him, he let me which was a good thing since I really didn't want to be talking with him. I quickly moved out of the house I didn't eat anything since I didn't know what I could eat and I wasn't going to go find the kitchen I would ask Hinata about it later when I got home.

This time I knew where I was going and got there at a fairly decent time and started work right away. Guess what I got to do? More cleaning the rest of my life was going to be dedicated to cleaning.

Though the best thing about working at the library was that I got more breaks than I did the other job. Though I wasn't sure what I was going to do about food that was going to be an interesting thing. God I hated having to figure things out, it wouldn't be so bad if I knew what I had to do to do things. As I was putting books and scrolls up in their right place some one bumped into me and my tower of books that the librarian gave me to put up started leaning I tried saving the books but they all went over. I quickly set the books that I had saved down and started picking up the other books and striating out the pages that were bent almost frantically. I noticed that some one else bent down to help pick up the books and started putting them in a stack with the other books.

"I'm sorry about bumping into you." it was a male voice and when I looked up at them I just kind of stared at them for a few seconds and than said, "It's fine." I picked up the books and just kind of walked away from the man. He had his head band on backwards and what looked like a large tooth pick up it was metal. He wore the same thing that the other ninjas wore, I got that information from Shizune since I was curious.

It was a little while later maybe two hours or so and the same guy popped back up, I was wondering what he was doing in the library for more than two hours I would have gotten bored by than if I wasn't reading, maybe he was reading I didn't think he was though.

"So what's your name?" he asked, I was curious as hell why he would want to know my name I'm not that great. So I lied, "I don't have a name."

"I could just get it from the head librarian." he smirked.

"Than why don't you instead of asking me for it?" that caught him off guard a little.

"You know? You seem like an interesting person." he said looking at one of the books that was on a stack of books that I was checking in.

"Why would you want to talk to a slave?" I was literally a slave since I didn't get pay and I got to do what people told me to do.

"Are you sure you're a slave?"

"Yeah I'm pretty sure that I am one." I grabbed the book from his hands and checked it in and placed it on the stack that I was going to have to put a way soon. And any time worked so I picked up the books and moved away from the small table that I was working at and started looking around for the area that I needed to put the books in.

"Aw why wont you talk to me?" he asked kind of sadly.

"I need to work so I can pay off my debt and than find a way home." I said as I placed a book on the shelf.

"What kind of debt?" he asked curious.

"Hospital debt if it's any of your business."

"Sure it is, since I happened to be one that you fell over on after we untied you from that chair." that made me stop in my tracks and than I kept walking away from him after I thought about something. I knew that he stopped following me after he had said that since I didn't see him any more.

When I was leaving the library I saw Hinata waiting near the front steps.

"Oh hey Hinata, are you waiting for some one?"

"Oh Aurora I was.. Um waiting for you."

"Really…. Wait when did you learn my name I don't remember telling you."

"Oh, I'm sorry please forgive me."

"No it's fine I just find it weird that people know my name sort of." I looked down at the ground thinking about my friends that I didn't really have back home. Maybe I could start anew in this world it would take me a while to not be a slave but eventually I could do it and I could start everything anew and not have to worry about those other people anymore.

"Aurora?" she asked timidly.

"What? Oh I'm fine let's head home." we started walking back towards Hinata's house and was stopped by a guy with a dog sitting on his head. He started talking to Hinata I just watched the dog sitting on his head wondering if it was going to jump off and attack me. Than I heard my name being called.

"Aurora, this is Kiba and Akamaru." said Hinata.

"Nice to meet you, so what breed is your dog?" I asked wondering since I'd never seen a dog like that.

"I'm not sure." Kiba said looking up at his dog that just barked, "Well we'll see you tomorrow Hinata." and with that Kiba left and we started walking back home.
