A/N: It's been a long while, my internet is off right now, so I had to load all of my stories onto my laptop at work and then write chapters at home and post them at work...it's a process, but now that I have all of my stories on my laptop, maybe I can update a bit more. ;P

~Chapter Two~

-x-x-x-

Blue eyes snapped open and a clammy hand brushed the cold sweat from his forehead. "...What time is it?" Glancing to the clock by his bedside, the blue eyed boy let out a grown before running his fingers through his blonde hair. Throwing the sheets and blankets off of him, he placed his feet on the cool floor and stood up, stretching his arms over his shoulders and yawning.

"...need to get ready..." he scratched his head and glanced back to his bed, still tired, he blinked as if trying to focus his eyes, but blurred images of a girl with wavy black hair and gorgeous blue eyes plagued his vision. "...what a weird dream."

"Naruto!"

Naruto walked over towards his two teammates, both of which were waiting for him to arrive. "Hey guys,"

"..."

Naruto sat down next to the two, one, Sakura Haruno, was a young pink haired kunoichi, the other, Sasuke Uchiha, was the last of a massacred clan.

The two looked at the blonde curiously and for a moment, they kept quiet, but when silence reigned, Sakura spoke. "Naruto, is something wrong? You seem a bit out of it."

"Huh?" Naruto glanced up and saw Sakura staring down at him as if he had mushrooms growing off his head. "Why do you think that?"

"...Your just normally more talkative...I guess."

"Am I?" Naruto shrugged, "I just don't have anything to say." He looked up at the clouds, staring at the sky lost in his thoughts, the image of a bloodstained battlefield popped into his mind. "Ah~!" Naruto blinked his eyes rapidly, trying to push the image out of his head. 'It was just a dream, but...why did it have to look so real!'

"Naruto?"

'It all seemed so real, but I've never seen her before...I would have remembered her...and those eyes, those beautiful blue eyes.' Closing his eyes, he sighed.

"NARUTO!"

Naruto jumped and stared into angry green eyes, "What?!"

"You are spacing out, what's wrong with you!?"

"What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you!? You are upset at me because I'm being too quiet, yet you are always yelling at me because I don't shut up or you find me annoying! Make up your mind, Sakura! Do you want me to talk or not!?"

"...leave him alone."

Sakura and Naruto turned to see Sasuke leaning against a tree with his arms crossed over his chest.

"But Sasuke..." Sakura frowned, shaking her head, she shrugged, "fine...what do I care?"

"Hello everybody...you are all here, shall we leave?"

"..."

Naruto stood up and started off towards the Jounin who stood before them now. "Kakashi sensei, I have a question."

"One I'm sure you've covered before at the academy, but please, go ahead and ask."

Naruto stared down at his fingers, wondering momentarily if the question was a really stupid one or if perhaps even his sensei wouldn't know. "Is aura the same thing as Chakra?"

"Aura?"

"It's just a question."

"...from what I understand, no. However...I'm no expert. You should ask a medic...or librarian."

Naruto sighed, pocketing his hands, he didn't ask anything else.

Kakashi looked at the blonde haired boy, "Is there a reason you asked?"

"Someone mentioned it to me last night...I just thought about it now; thought I'd ask."

Not really knowing what to say, Sakura took the attention away from Kakashi with her own inquiry. "Who was it that mentioned it?"

"..." Naruto blushed, "I don't think that's important."

Nothing else was added as Naruto left the three, not even bothering to hang around long enough to hear the mission that they would be a part of today.

Kakashi turned to Sakura and Sasuke and sighed, "Take the day to relax; I have some things to look into."

Naruto looked at his bed cautiously, it was dark out already, and by now he should be asleep, but for one reason or another, he wasn't lying down to go to sleep. He just couldn't help but wonder if the girl would really be there when he closed his eyes, or if the girl was really just a figment of his imagination. "It's just dream, Naruto...why are you so worried about whether or not she's real or just a dream?" Sighing, he let gravity take hold of him and fell back onto his bed. Laying his head back on his pillow, he let one of his arms fall over his eyes, blocking out the shadows around the room and falling away from reality and into the cloudy visions brought to life by his dreams.

~Dream Sequence~

Light broke through the trees surrounding the clearing he sat in and Naruto took a quick look around to see if anyone else was with him. "Kagome?" He called out curiously. Looking to his left, he saw a well there and nothing else. He looked down the well to see if somehow Kagome had fallen in or jumped or something equally strange, but to no avail. "I guess she really was just a made up dream."

"Well that's not a very nice thing to say."

Naruto jumped and turned around. Standing beside a tree, Kagome smiled at him. She kneeled down and leaned against the bark of the tree beside her, and he walked over and sat down across from her. "Are you real?"

"...yes...I am. And you?"

"I'm real...believe it..."

Kagome smiled, "I believe you..."
