Chains of A Thousand Bonds: The Tie That Binds.

"Reana, Brandon, you pass," says Kakashi.

Two hours later, Sasuke and Naruto stared at Brandon and me. We had gotten our bells in 15 minutes and had also collected food for all of us. I think that Naruto felt a little intimidated.

An hour after I got home, I logged into my messenger.

(Reana- avengingangel)

(Sasuke- vengefulknight)

(Brandon- silentstar)

avengingangel - Is anyone online?

silentstar- I'm here, but I can't talk. Mom says it's time to eat.

avengingangel- okay. You're lucky you know where your mom is.

Silentstar- I know. Talk to you later. And chin up, we'll find them.

After he logged off, I clicked on a name that had just appeared on the screen of mine and Brandon's chatroom.

Avengingangel- Hello?

Vengefulknight- Who are you?

Avengingangel- No, the question is, who are you?

Vengefulknight- Let me take a wild guess—Reana?

Avengingangel- How did you know? How do you know me?

Vengefulknight- Let's say you met someone today and ignored them. Who could it be, 'cause this is the same person.

Avengingangel- Sorry Sasuke, I didn't mean to ignore you.

Vengefulknight- I guess not. You seemed excited to see that friend of yours again. BTW, what did you mean silentstar was lucky to know where his mom is?

Avengingangel- My mom turned up missing in the battle where my Village was destroyed. She and dad has been MIA (missing in action) for a year now.

Vengefulknight- So you're alone.

Avengingangel- Pretty much. It's just me and Shiro. I can't even feel my parents in my heart anymore. Shouldn't I be able to tell if they're still alive?

Vengefulknight- I don't know. My parents, my entire clan, were killed by my brother when I was eight. I'm sort of an orphan now.

Avengingangel- I knew there was some reason that I felt a connection to you.

Vengefulknight- What do you mean?

Avengingangel- We share a similar story of being alone. My older brother is still out there. He led otonagakure to our village. He became an Otonin. I swear to you, Sasuke, that Zarma will not get away with killing my friends. It was just mom, dad, him and me in our family. Now I think it's just him and me.

Vengefulknight- I'll help you. Trust me on this one little Avengingangel, vengeance is not something someone like you should bear alone. It could cause more harm than good.

Avengingangel- Do you live close by?

Vengefulknight- Look out your window.

Avengingangel- You live next door?

Vengefulknight-  Yeah. Why?

Avengingangel- Wow.

Silentstar- Hey you two. Who's Vengefulknight, Avengingangel?

Avengingangel- a friend.

Vengefulknight- Goodnight little angel

Avengingangel- Goodnight, new friend.

Silentstar- Goodnight, whoever you are. Goodnight Reana.

Avengingangel- Goodnight Brandon.

As we all logged off I smiled to myself. He may have seemed aloof when we first met, but Sasuke would be a good friend. He would be great to talk to.

At Sasuke's house:

He wondered what she had thought when he first told her who he was. Since he hadn't logged off yet, Sasuke looked at his screen and pressed refresh. Sure enough, she had said goodnight and logged off. Sasuke didn't know why, but he was being drawn to this girl.

I hope you like the story. It's going to get better. It'll get longer to if I get more reviews. If you have any ideas for the story, put them in a review. Thanks.
