Chapter 6
Naruto and Hanna were at the mall, in the food court waiting for their order when Hanna glanced up at him, "Go ahead, and say whatever it is you are struggling to ask."
"What?" Hanna asked
Naruto, still reading the update from his CFO on his phone, said, "You've been glancing at me for the last couple days, like you want to ask something. What is it?"
"Ok," Hanna sighed and sat up straight "I got this friend that wants to go to Homecoming with you."
Naruto stopped what he was doing and looked to Hanna "Is she cute?" he asked.
"Very." Hanna nodded with a smile.
"Well I don't have any plans for that day. I suppose I can go with her. Does she have a name?" Naruto asked with a smile.
"Mona." Hanna said causing the smile on Naruto's face to vanish in an instant.
"Hell no." He retorted.
"Come on, Naruto don't be like that." Hanna said.
"Don't be like what? Hanna, I don't know that girl like that, and I'm not really interested in your friend." Naruto said.
"Why not? There is nothing wrong with Mona." Hanna said in denial.
"Then she'll have no problem finding a date." Naruto replied, before he looked up when their order was called.
Later
During the drive home, Naruto honestly was getting very tempted to compel Hanna to can it, as she wouldn't stop talking about him taking Mona to the damn dance. Pulling up into the driveway, he turned to her and asked "Look, if I say yes, will you please stop bringing this up?"
"Yeah."
"I'm so going to regret this." Naruto whispered to himself, "Tell Mona that I'll pick her up at 10:30."
"The dance starts at 8:00." Hanna said
'Fuck'. He thought. He was still hoping to get out of this. "Right." Naruto said unenthusiastically before he snatched the fortune cookies when Hanna went to take the bag "You owe me for this."
Hanna smiled as Naruto walked into the house with the cookies while she got her bag, and walked over to Aria's house meeting Emily, and Spencer at the gate.
Naruto entered the house and went to his room.
Montgomery House
Aria sighed as she listened to music on her headphones as she laid in bed. The last 2 days had been exhausting with her trying to stop Mike from worrying about their parents, and her mom actively avoiding being in a room alone with her, and Ezra wasn't speaking to her after he read an 'A' message on her phone when she left it at his apartment.
Aria gave a depressed sigh, before she looked up when her headphone was removed by Spencer "What are you doing?"
"An intervention." Spencer said.
"We brought takeout and rag mags." Emily said dropping a stack of magazines on Aria's bed.
"But you can't have any, until you get out of these sweats." Hanna said as Aria sat up feeling a little bit better since her friends came to cheer her up.
2 Days Later
Naruto and Hanna were at the lunch table with Hanna putting on her lip gloss. "So how was your RLW meeting?" Naruto asked sipping his orange juice.
"Actually pretty good. I was paired up with Lucas." Hanna said.
"Bet that did wonders for his self-esteem." Naruto replied.
"He called me a genetic splice between Shikira and Barbie."
"He flirted with you? Attaboy." Naruto said proud of his geeky classmate.
"You should join." Hanna said.
"Join…what?" Naruto asked eating a fry.
"Real Love Waits. Someone of your status would be a real confidence booster for some of the members."
"Same thing Mr. Mazarra said to me, but that ship sailed long ago." Naruto said, before Spencer sat next to Hanna.
"Way to sneak up on people." Hanna said putting up her lip gloss.
"Sorry. Look, can you get it today?" Spencer asked.
"Get what?" Hanna asked.
"Jenna's file." Spencer answered.
"No. They canceled my shift at work." Hanna said, taking one of Naruto's fries.
"Well, go in anyway. It's a therapist's office. Pretend you're having a nervous breakdown."
"Well, if I lose the crown to Heather Perez, I won't have to pretend." Hanna replied, looking at her competition.
"Hanna, I'm serious. That file might be our only chance to find out what Jenna knows about that night, and if she and her creepy stepbrother are planning revenge." Spencer said a bit panicked.
"Spence, I'll get it." Hanna said.
"Did something happen, Spencer?" Naruto asked.
"It's because Toby Cavanaugh, who's never had a date in his life, just bought two tickets to homecoming." Spencer whispered.
"So, Jenna's coming, too.' Hanna sighed before Mona arrived, causing Naruto to sigh in annoyance.
"Hey, Hann. Spencer." Mona greeted before she looked to Naruto "Hey cutie."
Naruto glared at a smiling Hanna, as Mona wrapped her arm around his and leaned her head on his shoulder 'I'm going to kill you for this.' he mouthed to his friend whose smile widened.
Mona unaware of Naruto's glare, and threat, lifted her head and looked to Spencer "So, is it true you're taking the country club's towel boy to homecoming?"
"His name is Alex, and yes, I am." Spencer said with a frown.
"Knock it off, Mona." Hanna said, frowning at Mona.
"What? I think it's cute she's taking her Cinderfella to the ball." Mona said.
"Can you go get me a fro-yo with sprinkles?" Hanna asked Mona, who looked like she was going to decline when she turned to look at Naruto who silently compelled her, causing her to get up and leave.
"Wow, that was exactly the reaction I want to avoid." Spencer said.
"Don't pay any attention to her. She's just insecure."
"Yeah, like a pit bull." Naruto said.
"Why are you friends with her?" Spencer asked.
"Once you get to know her, she's really funny. And she's always there for me, even if it's just to watch me try on shoes. Look, she's a good person. She just talks tough so people will forget what a geek she used to be." Hanna said.
"Sorry Naruto." Spencer said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow "You're going to have to spend the entire night at Homecoming with her."
"Thanks to Hanna. Don't remind me." Naruto said glaring at the girl who ate his fries with a smile. Before he moved them from her reach.
"Hey, it wasn't like you were planning on taking anyone, and Mona really likes you." Hanna said before Spencer slapped her thigh "Ow! Okay, you need to chillax, or I need to start carrying a tranq gun."
Spencer turned Hanna's and Naruto's attention to Toby who pulled out his phone, which caused his shirt to flip up, showing the three a tattoo that said '901 Free At Last' on his side "What is that?"
"Anything of importance happen on September first?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Allison went missing." Spencer said.
Next Night
Homecoming
Aria walked into the dance and stopped at the steps looking around till she saw her friends and walked down smiling. "There she is!" Hanna said, smiling as she stood in between Shawn, and Naruto who was sipping his flask, which was blood mixed with bourbon.
"I was afraid you were going to bail." Spencer said standing next to Alex.
"No way. I'm ready to have some fun tonight." Aria smiled.
"Well, you look very beautiful." Naruto said smiling causing Aria to blush and push a lock of hair behind her ear. Unfortunately Naruto's smile immediately vanished when Mona appeared and wrapped her arms around him. Everyone but Mona could tell that he would rather cut his own throat then be near the girl.
"Hey, Aria!" Mona greeted, causing Aria to smile at her politely "No date? Wow, how the mighty has fallen."
Everyone frowned at Mona, while Aria caught Naruto's veins bulging and his eyes turning red for a second before he calmed down and turned to Mona. "Mona, I bet your feeling thirsty,"
Mona looked up to Naruto and her eyes looked glazed over "I'm thristy." Mona said walking away to get something to drink before Naruto looked to Hanna with a frown while Sean spoke with Spencer's date.
"To hell with this. I'm outta here." Naruto said.
"What? Come on you can't just leave Mona like that." Hanna said.
"Look Hanna, I gave her the benefit of the doubt for your sake, but all night she has either thrown shots at other people, or talked about only herself. Now I get that she is your friend, and popular but who cares? That doesn't give her the right to talk down to other people, especially not your other friends." Naruto said.
"Ok, I know your right but please, don't go." Hanna pleaded, as Naruto stared into her eyes with barely concealed longing.
"Fine." Naruto said walking off.
Later
Everyone had split off, with Hanna, and Mona at the punch and snack bowl, Aria at the game center with Ezra, and Spencer with her sister. Currently Mona was watching Naruto who was chatting up two cheerleaders, causing her to frown. Naruto was the hottest guy in school and he was the Homecoming date to one of Rosewood's IT girls yet he didn't even compliment her tonight, saying she looked alright and remaining silent the entire car ride to the dance. He had been cold and standoffish with her the entire night, yet he tells Aria she's beautiful then he chats up two cheerleaders like it's nothing. Who does that?
"Is that Becky Newman?" Hanna asked, causing her to look over to see who she was talking about.
"It looks like her hair got in a fight with her face and they both lost." Mona said, while glancing over to Naruto who was being dragged away by the cheerleaders, causing her to frown which became more pronounced when Lucas walked up.
"Yearbook pictures!" Lucas said snapping a picture of Hanna, and Mona "Hey." he said to Hanna.
"Hey." Hanna greeted annoyed with Mona already, and welcoming the distraction "Nice bowtie."
"Oh, thanks. It's my grandpa's." Lucas nodded before he looked to Mona "Hey. I'm Lucas."
"Great. Can you be Lucas…over there?" Mona said rudely.
"Um I'll see you around, Hanna." Lucas said, with a frown as he felt kinda sad.
"Yeah, see you around. Have fun." Hanna said with a apologetic smile before she looked to Mona with a frown, "Rude much?"
"Am I in a parallel universe, or did you just engage in conversation with Hermie. Isn't that what Alison called him?" Mona asked.
"He is not a hermaphrodite, okay? He's a nice guy. Saying hi to him is not a crime." Hanna frowned.
"It should be. You didn't bust your ass to become Rosewood's "IT girl" just to make chit-chat with shim. If you and I start slipping up, we're gonna be right back at the bottom again." Mona said staring at Hanna intensely.
"Yeah, well, I'm starting to think I've lost some important things on the climb up and I want them back." Hanna replied.
"Look, you can go kamikaze if you want, but I will cut your rip cord before I let you drag me down with you." Mona scoffed before she handed Hanna a drink and walked off to find her date.
5 Minutes Later
Naruto pulled away from the two cheerleaders after he healed them from his feeding and wiped their minds with compulsion. With an annoyed sigh, he was about to head back to Homecoming and chat up Spencer's sister but turned into a frowning Mona "What do you want?" he asked.
"Don't give me that. We're supposed to be here together. You can't just disappear like that with 2 cheerleaders. Do you know how that makes me feel?" Mona asked causing Naruto to scoff before he made to tell her that 1. He didn't care, 2. He hated her, and 3. They weren't dating. That he was only here with her tonight because Hannna basically begged him to when she grabbed his arm and forced him into the classroom and looked around.
"Um what are you looking for?' Naruto asked as the door closed behind them. He knew what she was planning. He wasn't having it.
"Nothing.' Mona said dropping to her knees to unzip Naruto's pants when he stopped her and forced her up and against the wall.
"What are you-" Mona demanded before he vamped out and he covered her mouth he fed on her, the sound of flowing blood and muffled screams to resound around the room.
Later
Homecoming
Naruto walked into the dance to see Sean, and Alex talking "Yo, where the girls?" he asked.
"Here!" Hanna said walking up with Aria and Spencer, before she looked around "Where's Mona?'
"She went home." Naruto said, causing Hanna to raise an eyebrow "Where were you guys?'
"Uh...We had to get ice." Hanna said, glancing behind Naruto who look over to see Emily talking to Toby.
"Wow." Naruto drawled before Alex asked Spencer to dance and the two walked off, followed by Hanna and Sean, leaving Naruto to take Aria onto the dance floor.
"You didn't kill Mona did you?" Aria asked.
"Wow. Is that how low you think of me?" Naruto asked.
"You're some kind of vampire. You are here with a date who you hate, who also would never leave Homecoming early, and has been missing for an hour, and only you show up." Aria said causing Naruto to shake his head.
"Well when you put it like that…No I didn't kill Mona. I just fed on her and then compelled her forget it and then leave." Naruto said. The only reason he didn't compel Mona was because Hanna was convinced she wasn't A and he cared for her enough to respect his opinions.
"That's that mind control thing right?" Aria asked.
"Yeah." Naruto nodded before he looked over to Emily and Toby "Since when have those two been hanging out?"
"We don't know, we didn't even know they were talking." Aria said before she frowned and tried to storm over to Emily and Toby but Naruto pulled her onto the dance floor.
"Not a good idea." Naruto warned.
"Toby is dangerous." Aria argued as they danced.
"Look up dangerous in the dictionary. My pictures right next to it." Naruto reminded her, "Toby is a high school kid, who was framed by Allison. Sure it's possible he can be A but there is no proof, and if you just go over there and ruin Emily's night accusing Toby of something he might've not did, then you can ruin your friendship with Emily."
Aria nodded before she looked like she had a realization "The file."
"What file?' Naruto asked.
"Hanna works in the same building as Jenna's shrink, she rigged the door so she can go and get it now is the perfect chance for her to go and get it." Aria said, ending her dance with him and walking over and grabbing Spencer, and Hanna.
Naruto smiled and shook his head watching as Sean looked annoyed while Alex looked to be at the end of his rope. About to go enjoy himself with some pleasant conversation, he looked up when Hanna called for his attention. Walking over she asked "Can you give me a ride to the office?"
"Sure." Naruto nodded before he and Hanna walked off, while Spencer walked back out with Aria who went over to Sean and distracted him till Hanna got back while Alex took Spencer to the Fortune Teller.
20 Minutes Later
Naruto and Hanna snuck into the building and Hanna sighed when the door was locked causing her to groan "No, this can't be happening." she whined before she looked around and turned to Naruto "Wait here, I'm going to see if I can find something to help us pick the lock."
Naruto watched as Hanna began to leave before he grabbed the handle and forced it to turn and opened the door "It's open." he said, causing her to turn around and jog back over
"How did you..?"
"I guess it likes me more." Naruto shrugged before Hanna shrugged and they walked in toward the filing cabinet before Hanna began to search for what she was looking for "Find it?"
"No, there's no file under Marshall." Hanna said annoyed.
"Try Cavinaugh." Naruto said causing Hanna to nod before she began to look.
"Got it." Hanna said excited before she began to look through it.
"We have to get back to the dance." Naruto said walking out before Hanna followed him and they left
Moments Later
Naruto drive down the road as Hanna looked through the file "Oh my god." Hanna said.
"What?" Naruto asked.
"Toby was in Rosewood the day Aly disappeared, and um...it seems Aly threatened him to not say what really happened with Jenna or she'd tell everyone that he was doing it with Jenna. That's enough to want Aly and us dead."
"But why would he target me as well?" Naruto asked.
"I don't know but we need to get to Emily." Hanna said taking out her phone, while Naruto sped up.
Later
Rosewood High
Naruto, and the girls around the school looking for Emily, but they heard screaming and Naruto began to pull away and saw Toby over Emily who was bleeding.
"Hey!" Naruto shouted causing Toby to look up allowing, Naruto to see his scared expression with blood on his cheek before he ran off while Naruto ran over and saw Emily was unconscious. Lifting his arm, he was about to bite into his wrist when he looked up to see the girls about to enter, so he quickly picked her up in a bridle carry.
"Oh my god Emily!" Spencer shouted running over with the others as Naruto stood up.
"She's alive, but we need to get her to the Hospital." Naruto said heading toward the exit. While the girls followed and Hanna, and Spencer got into the backseat with Emily while Aria got into the passenger seat, and Naruto sped off toward the Hospital.
Next Morning
Fields Home
Rosewood PD was outside Emily's house, trying to get her statement but her mother Pam wasn't allowing them to talk to her daughter, who only needed a few stitches, and to wear a brace on her bruised wrist.
Currently, Emily was upstairs with Aria, and Spencer, who were telling her what they found out, "It was all in his shrinks file. Toby and Jenna had a relationship."
"Way beyond step siblings." Spencer said.
"Yeah, they were...involved." Aria added.
"Romantically?" Emily asked.
"I wouldn't call it that, but I doubt she had much of a choice." Spencer said.
"And that is what Allison saw when she threw the stink bomb."
"And she probably threatened to expose Toby which is why he wanted her dead." Spencer assumed.
"And not just her, us, you." Aria said, only for Emily to look away and run a hand through her hair.
"You don't believe us?" Spencer asked.
"I do, I just don't get it." Emily said looking down as her friends looked at her curiously "If Toby killed Allison, then why am I sitting in my bed and not a body bag?"
"Because Naruto got there in time to stop him from whatever sick, twisted thing he had in mind." Spencer said.
"Right, but Naruto said that Toby was scared."
"Yeah because he got caught." Spencer retorted.
Outside
Naruto and Hanna walked up to Emily's house after a failed attempt to return the file seeing as cops were already speaking with Toby's shrink "Hey is she allowed visitors?' Hanna asked Pam.
"Yeah, go on up, but hurry up because she really needs her rest." Pam said
"Ok." Naruto said before he and Hanna made for the door when the cop stopped him
"Mr. Uzumaki," Officer Barry called causing Naruto to stop and turn to him, while Hanna watched "I know you want to go see your friend but I really need to get your statement."
"Of course." Naruto nodded before he looked to Hanna, and nodded he was okay, so she left to see Emily "I was leaving the restroom, and about to head back to the dance, when Hanna, Spencer, and Aria ran into me, and said they were looking for Emily so they could take a group photo, when we heard her scream, we ran to see if she was alright, but I must have moved to fast because I pulled away from them and saw Toby looking down at her while she was unconscious. I called out to him and he looked at me scared and ran off, while I and the girls took Emily to the hospital. I attempted to call Mrs. Fields but received no answer, so I drove here and woke her up to tell her what happened before taking her to the Hospital."
Officer Barry nodded writing down on his pad, "Do you have any idea where Toby Cavanaugh is?"
"No, sorry, I don't really hang out with lots of people because a person of my status can't be too trusting with people, so Hanna, Emily, Spencer, and Aria are the only people I can call friends in this town." Naruto said getting a nod from Officer Barry.
"Thanks for your time." Officer Barry said to Naruto, and Pam who nodded before he walked away while Naruto looked to Pam when the man got into his car and drove off with his partner.
"Naruto, thank you again for all that you've done." Pam said with a small smile.
Naruto shook his head, "You shouldn't thank me, Mrs. Fields because if Toby really hurt Emily then I'm accountable as well."
"What do you mean?" Pam asked.
"Weeks ago the day before Ben left town, he tried to force himself on Emily in the locker room." Naruto said causing Pam's eyes to widen as she paled "I heard her scream and ran to save her, but Toby did as well and we stopped him before he could do something horrible. Toby left with Ben, while I stood outside to let Emily change and offered her a ride home, but your daughter is a strong individual she preferred to ride her bike home. I don't know if that is how she and Toby began to talk and get closer but if so, then I am sorry I didn't insist on giving her a ride, I just didn't want to push her."
"Thank you Naruto. It's ok. All I care about now is that she is safe." Pam said getting a nod from Naruto.
"That's all that matters, Mrs. Fields." Naruto said
"Please call me Pam." Pam smiled placing a hand on Naruto's shoulder and resisted the urge to shudder at the feeling that passed through her while Naruto smiled.
"She's a witch." Naruto thought wondering if she practiced or if she was unaware of it, before he noticed Hanna, Spencer, and Aria come out "Everything alright?" he asked
"Yeah, she decided to turn in." Hanna said causing Naruto to nod before he looked to Pam "Would you please tell Em, that I'll come back later to check up on her?"
"Of course." Pam nodded before the four walked away, and she walked inside a new anger settling in at what Naruto had told her almost happened to her daughter she would've killed that boy. It was too bad that they had committed suicide after settling in there new town.
Later
Few Days Later
After, being stuck in meetings for the past few days Naruto was now helping Spencer, and the girls will Allison's memorial, while he was gone Hanna had got into an argument with Sean about her ditching him at Homecoming and she had tossed the file in the river since she was paranoid and didn't want to get into anymore trouble.
Currently, he was pushing a large crate into Spencer's living room with Aria, and Spencer behind him "I was afraid she wouldn't get it done in time for the memorial."
"And this was someone from your mom's gallery?" Hanna asked
"Right." Aria nodded
"Where is your mom?" Naruto asked as he took a screwdriver.
"There's an apartment above the gallery, so she's staying there. For now."
"That's kind of weird, isn't it? Your mom is moving out." Hanna said.
"Yeah, like my dad should have left. That's what you'd expect." Aria snipped.
"Aria." Emily said causing Aria to realize what she said.
"Hey, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that. The whole thing just sucks." Aria said looking to Hanna who nodded.
"I know."
"Did anyone call Shelly Leonard?" Emily asked
"Done. And I told her if she plays anything depressing, I will kick in her cello." Spencer nodded.
"Oh, what about the program?" Naruto asked.
"Almost done, but we should finish it before Ali's brother gets here." Spencer sighed.
"When is that?" Aria asked.
"Tonight. And he wants to see us in the morning." Spencer said.
"You know what? I barely remember Jason." Hanna said getting up and walking over.
"I didn't really know him. He was just Ali's older brother down the hall."
"Behind a closed door." Spencer nodded.
"With his hardcore punk music vibrating the floorboards." Emily said causing the girls to giggle, while Naruto gagged at the girl talk.
"How did he get into an Ivy league school?" Aria asked.
"I don't know. It must have been affirmative action for goths and emos." Spencer said as Naruto put the screwdriver, and the screws on the table and lifted up the lid, allowing everyone to see the bowl with the 5 female shaped figurines.
"It's beautiful." Aria smiled.
"Pedestal's already out there, next to the bench. This goes up Friday morning." Spencer said.
"Do you think Jason will like it?" Emily asked.
"Of course he'll like it." Hanna said.
"And years from now, people are gonna see this memorial, and that's all. They'll ever know about Ali. She'll be the girl that they dedicated the bench to." Aria sighed, "And we'll all be gone, but Ali will still be remembered." she said glancing to Naruto.
"That's immortality, my darlings." Spencer smiled causing Naruto to scoff as the girls flashbacked to a memory about them talking about immortality and dying mysteriously.
"Small town people can be so weird." Naruto said.
"What do you mean?" Hanna asked.
"The town is dedicating a bench to a girl who tragically died with more enemies then friends. People die everyday, but small towns always find a way to turn it into some kind of festival, or monument." Naruto said.
"It's for people who will miss Allison." Emily said.
"Her family and you guys." Naruto replied "This A person is still out there. Could be her murderer for all we know, and if this person hated her enough to kill her, then terrorize her friends, a bench dedicated to her won't be around for long."
"You think A will vandalize the bench?" Spencer asked.
"Most definitely." Naruto nodded walking over and looking at the bowl, "Hatred can drive people to do terrible things."
Next Day
Ashley sighed as she walked beside her complaining daughter. "It was humiliating! So they can just take my credit card? That's private property, isn't it?" Hanna asked.
"It's private property. It belongs to the bank." Ashley said.
"Well, what about my other cards?" Hanna asked sitting at the island as her mom poured herself some coffee.
"Don't be so quick on the draw, at least for a while." Ashley said causing Hanna to sigh, "I'm sorry. I was trying to keep this off your radar."
"Mom." Hanna said causing Ashley to sigh.
"We have to make some adjustments. Temporary adjustments. We need to be more careful about money."
"For how long?" Hanna asked.
"Until we don't have to anymore." Ashley frowned.
"And how long is that?" Hanna asked.
"I don't know." Ashley sighed.
"Well, when will you know?"
Ashley frowned and opened the fridge, "This is a visual representation of what I'm talking about. Skim milk, orange juice, and some yogurt. No flavored waters, no cunning chardonnay. Nothing from the artisan cheese shop." Ashley said grabbing the milk and closing the fridge.
"What happened?" Hanna asked.
"What happened is a mortgage, and bills, and taxes, and the fact that this is a one-paycheck family. I thought I could compensate for your dad going, but it's been hard. Harder than I expected." Ashley confessed.
"How hard?" Hanna demanded.
"It's not the first card to be declined." Ashley revealed causing Hanna to frown
"We're living with one of the richest 500 guys in the world, mom. Why don't you just ask Naruto for help?" Hanna asked.
"No, I'm the adult here. Its my job to make sure you and Naruto are okay, and protected. I'll think of something." Ashley said causing Hanna to frown
Outside
Naruto was at the door and frowned having heard about Ashley's financial problems, before he sighed and walked to his car. He got a text on his phone from Tessa that said she wanted to talk.
Tessa's Botanist Shop
Naruto entered into the shop where Tessa had made her home for the moment. It was your average local flower shop.
"What did you want to speak about?" Naruto asked Tessa, as they walked into a back room.
"You know we should really talk about you telling Aria about her status as a witch." Tessa said.
"You sure now is a good time? She's got enough on her plate with this cyberbully thing and her terrible choice in romantic interests, and the longer I keep Emerys away from her, the better." Naruto said.
"Fine, but I know you can sense that her powers are growing stronger. Let her get mad at someone and they die because she accidently melted their brain. And besides, that barrier of yours won't block her signature forever. Emerys will kill her, regardless of how innocent she is." Tessa said and Naruto sighed as he knew she was right.
Spencer's House
Spencer, Emily, and Aria were sitting at the island in Spencer's kitchen, with Jason DiLaurentis, the elder brother of Alison. "You've done a great job. Really. Mom and dad and I are really grateful." Jason smiled nodding at the three girls before they all looked to the doorway when Hanna walked in "There she is!"
"Jason! Hey." Hanna smiled walking over and hugging him, while glancing to her friends "Sorry I'm late."
"No problem." Jason smiled as Hanna stepped back and sat with the other girls "I was just saying you've done some lovely work on the memorial. I might have done one or two things differently, but we can adjust that along the way."
Spencer frowned at the perceived jab as Jason began to hand out papers, "Here's a copy of the program for the dedication."
"Oh, I e-mailed you the program that we worked up." Spencer said.
"Right. I saw the draft. This just fine-tunes it." Jason replied with a patronizing smile, "Uh, let's see what else? Oh, if Shelly Leonard's gonna play something, I don't think we can give her more than three minutes. I remember she's somewhat of a showboat with that cello. Then, uh Oh," Jason paused as he grabbed a photo of his little sister, "Is this the picture for the program?"
"Yes. It's everybody's favorite." Emily nodded.
"It's the one I would have picked." Jason sighed "I thought I was gonna be able to get my whole family out here, but you know, at the last minute, my mom, um it's crazy talking about this, isn't it? When I think about her, I-I think about you-the five of you, in her bedroom, laughing, keeping secrets...Long time ago. I want each of you to speak. I'd rather hear from you than Mrs. Slocomb from the PTA."
"Well, the PTA was a lot of help." Spencer said.
"What about the rain?" Jason asked, ignoring what she said.
"The rain?" Spencer asked.
"Forty percent chance before the weekend." Jason clarified.
"Oh, um, they said that we can use the school's multipurpose room if we have to move the ceremony inside." Spencer nodded.
"Great. People think this dedication is about closure. There won't be closure until they find out who did this to Alison. The cops in this town have been jerking my family around for more than a year. No more of that. I'm here to get some action, and this memorial is gonna help me get it. Oh, and I'm adding one speaker to the program." Jason said before he wrote a name on the paper.
JENNA MARSHALL
"Jenna Marshall?" Emily asked as everyone looked wide eyed.
"Wait, you want Jenna to speak at the dedication?" Hanna asked.
"That's right." Jason nodded.
"Why?" Aria asked.
"She asked me if she could." Jason shrugged.
"Jenna asked to speak?" Emily asked as the girls shared a look.
"Is there a problem?" Jason asked.
"I... it just didn't occur to us that Alison and Jenna were that close." Spencer said.
"Yeah, I didn't know either. Jenna called and said my sister was a lot of help to her after her accident." Jason nodded looking at Spencer, before he looked to the others, "Well, concentrate on what you're gonna say. Leave the rest of it to me. Now, I'm going to have a talk with Detective Wilden and find out why they haven't located Toby yet."
Hanna, Emily, and Aria watched as Spencer walked Jason out before Hanna asked, "Did we just get fired?"
"Shh! Keep it down!" Aria said.
"Why is he talking to Jenna?" Emily asked.
"I don't know."
"What does she have to say?" Emily wondered.
"This is turning into a nightmare." Aria groaned as Spencer returned.
"What else did he say?" Hanna asked.
"Nothing. He just kept smiling like he was running for office." Spencer sighed.
"Spence, why does Jenna want to speak at the dedication?" Aria asked.
"Why does Jason want her there? I mean, he clearly knows they weren't friends." Hanna said.
"We can't let Jenna speak." Emily said.
"Well, how are we gonna stop her without looking like bitches?" Aria asked.
"How are we going to stop her at all? In case you guys didn't notice, we just got patted on the head and sent off to play." Spencer replied as Aria looked thoughtful.
"You know what? You need to stay on top of him. Find out what's going on." Hanna said.
"Why me?" Spencer asked.
"Because you're the big organizer. You've got the laptop of all knowledge, and he's gonna need some of that." Aria said.
"Jenna could get up there, she could tell about the fire and Toby. She could tell about everything." Emily said causing Spencer to frown before she nodded.
Later
Naruto walked up behind Aria, who was looking at a flier for Homecoming that was still up. "Hey," he called getting her attention "Everything alright?"
"I've been texting you. We've got a problem." Aria said, grabbing Naruto's arm and pulling him off to the side, "Do you think you can use your mind control thingy on Jenna?"
'It's called compulsion, and I need eye contact for that to work. Why?"
"Jenna wants to speak at the dedication, and we don't know what she is going to say."
"She could spill about what really happened to her, and who knows what else." Naruto nodded "I'll handle it."
"How? You're not going to eat her, are you?" Aria asked.
"While that certainly tie up a loose end…No, I'm not going to eat Jenna unless I can't come up with anything. Just leave it to me." Naruto said, causing Aria to frown and nod slowly before the two walked into school.
Later
Cavanaugh Residence
Naruto stealthily walked around the house looking at all the photos of the family, when he heard growling and looked to the left to see Jenna's seeing-eye dog growling at him. Nathan's irises flashed red and he growled, "Beat it."
The dog stopped growling and walked off to do as Naruto commanded, before Naruto walked into Jenna's room, and frowned when he saw that she wasn't there. A door opened and Jenna walked in, wearing only a towel using her walking cane to make her way toward the bed,
"Hello Jenna." Naruto said in Toby's voice causing Jenna to gasp.
"Toby? Your alive." Jenna said happily as she tapped his shoes with her cane and reached forward and caressed his cheek affectionately.
"More or less." Naruto said reaching up and taking her chin in his grasp, before he had her look up, so he could see her cloudy eyes, before his own eyes glowed golden and he began to whistle, and Jenna's body began to relax, "You're not gonna remember this, but when you speak at the dedication for Alison, you're going to say-"
Next Night
Hanna's House
Naruto was in his room, getting dressed, when Hanna walked in. "Hey, I'm about to order a pizza, want anything?"
"Not in the mood for pizza." Naruto sighed before he looked out of his closet at her "What's going on with your mom?"
"Hm, nothing. She's just stressed out from work." Hanna lied.
"Oh, I thought it had something to do with the lack of groceries and declined credit cards mucking up the place." Naruto said, causing Hanna's eyes to widen before she walked in, closing the door behind her.
"You know." She accused.
"I live with you guys. Do you really believe I wouldn't notice the empty fridge and large stack of bills. I'm young, not stupid." Naruto said.
"She just didn't want you to worry." Hanna said.
"And you're not worried?' Naruto asked, causing Hanna to frown, "That's what I thought. I have money to burn, I will make sure she doesn't have to do anything stupid."
"Well, what are you going to do. She won't accept help." Hanna said
"Simple. I take the choice out of her hands." Naruto said before he pulled out his phone and began to look for a number.
"Who are you calling?" Hanna asked.
"A realtor, to buy the deed to your house." Naruto said before Hanna snatched the phone, thought he admittedly let her.
"You can't do that. She will be furious with you and she might even kick you out." Hanna warned.
"If something isn't done and soon, it won't matter, because you'll lose the house." Naruto said taking his phone back "She's too stubborn to admit she needs help, and if I have the means to help, then I should."
"Okay look just let her figure something out. We can handle the small things." Hanna said.
"Small things?" Naruto asked.
"Yeah, like groceries, and bills." Hanna said.
"You say 'we' like you have a job." Naruto replied.
"I'm thinking about it, and I just sold some bags online that I was bored with." Hanna said showing Naruto an envelope filled with $20 bills.
"Fine, but if I see one final notice bill or one stunt from A in regards to this, we do this my way." Naruto said getting a nod.
"Deal." Hanna nodded before she asked "What're you doing tonight?"
"Family member of mine is in town and we're meeting up. What about you?"
"Well Noel had tickets to Band of Horses, but the band canceled the concert so we all are just going to hang out here." Hanna said.
"Band of Horses? Never heard of them." Naruto said finding a long sleeve gray v-neck, and put it on "Well, I would say your welcome to join me but this is kind of private affair, but your night sounds fun too."
"You said family?" Hanna asked as she registered what he said.
"My uncle my father's side, who besides my father is the only one I've met on that side of the family." Nathan said as he put on his black Men's J. Ferrar Hybrid Double Breasted Wool Pea Coat and headed downstairs.
"Wait, what's he like? This uncle of yours?" Hanna asked as she came downstairs as he was getting his shoes on.
"I'll tell you about him later." He said as he opened the door. He turned back to her and smiled. "Seriously, don't stop having fun on my account."
He closed the door and drove off in his car. Hanna sighed and hoped she be able to get some answers of him later.
Apple Rose Grille
Several minutes later
Nathan walked in and looked around before he saw who he was looking for. He walked over the table. "You are one minute late." The gentleman said.
"Always so impeccable, Uncle Elijah," Nathan said as Elijah stood up from his seat and they shared a brief hug.
"Come, let us enjoy our meal while we catch up." Elijah offered and Nathan sat down.
As they ate, they talked about various things but Naruto eventually decided to cut to the heart of the matter. "I'm guessing the reason that I lost contact with you after went to pick up the doppelganger was because you got daggered."
"Yes, I was unfortunately daggered several times until Niklaus decided to dagger me for trying to kill him." Elijah said.
"I take it the bastard unbound his wolf side?" Naruto asked, causing Elijah to tense up.
"Naruto, he is your father." Elijah reminded.
"Doesn't change the fact that he is a bastard. And as for being my father, he wouldn't even give me a chance on account of his supposed inability to procreate and my lack of werewolf genes, forgetting that because my mother was a kitsune." Naruto reminded.
Elijah frowned as he remembered the meeting. He had hoped the discovery of his son would be Klaus's redemption. Yet, once again, Klaus acted like a petulant child and tossed Naruto away, poisoning any potential relationship they could have had.
"While I'm glad to see you again, I know this is not a social visit." Naruto said.
"My family has been undaggered and it turns out our mother is still alive. She wants us to be one big happy family. I was hopeful you would like to meet them." Elijah informed him.
"Not interested." Naruto said. "I prefer not getting tied down in Mikaelson family drama."
"You are a Mikaelson, Naruto." Elijah said.
"True, but I'm an Uzumaki first. Nothing you say will convince me to go." Naruto said.
Elijah sighed and got up to leave as he knew there was no convincing Naruto. "Before you go, Elijah, a couple things. Do not tell your mother about me and make sure Klaus keeps his mouth shut as well. And don't trust your mother. Nobody goes through what she does and doesn't bear a grudge against the one who condemned her to that fate."
Elijah nodded solemnly and exited the door. At the same time, Naruto got a S.O.S text from Hanna, who got it from Spencer.
Spencer's House
Naruto, Aria, Hanna, and Emily who just returned from a date with Maya, looked at a upset Spencer "So Alison pinned the Jenna Thing on you?" Naruto asked.
"That's what she told Jason." Spencer frowned.
"But why you?" Naruto asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Because Spencer could stand up to her, and Alison didn't like that." Aria said causing Naruto to nod slowly.
"God, this is officially insane!" Hanna said sitting down.
"Is that what she told Jenna when she was at the hospital?" Emily asked.
"I don't know. I mean, I don't think so, but I don't know." Spencer sighed running her hand through her hair.
"Okay, so-so one minute, she's trying to cover it up and the next she's ratting us out to her brother?" Aria asked with a frown.
"Like she wanted Jason to know the fake story in case anything happened to her." Emily frowned.
"Why?" Hanna asked.
"So they'd know who to blame." Naruto/Spencer said at the same time.
"God! This is still Alison's movie, and we are just filling up the screen." Aria complained.
"Some friend." Naruto said causing the girls to scoff in agreement.
Marin House
Later
Naruto was laying in his bed, with a frown as he looked at the ceiling, when his head snapped in the direction of the door as Hanna walked in, "Naruto, are you still up?" she whispered.
"Yeah, what's up?" Naruto asked.
"I don't want to be alone. Can I sleep in here tonight?" Hanna asked.
"Sure." Naruto said moving over allowing Hanna to get into the bed before she cuddled up to him, and he wrapped an arm around her.
"…I can't believe, Ali would pin the Jenna Thing on Spence like that." Hanna said after a moment of silence.
"I can." Naruto said solemnly as he held Hanna, enjoying her closeness to him, "She blinded a girl, then blackmailed the innocent step brother to keep the truth to himself. And the one person in her group that could stand up to her would take the fall if the truth did ever come out. She was nothing if not devious."
"But Spence was her friend." Hanna said.
"True, but some people don't really know how to be a good friend or a friend at all. To Allison, it was always about control. Spencer was slipping from Alison's control, so she made plans to potentially get rid of her." Naruto replied.
"God, can we talk about something else please?" Hanna asked not wanting to think about Alison betraying Spencer anymore.
"Like what?" Naruto asked.
"Like why you never told me you met your father and his family?"
"Oh, it's not a pretty story. I'll tell you about it someday." Naruto smiled before he kissed Hanna's forehead and she snuggled into him, causing him to chuckle softly.
'I don't need the Mikealson's to be happy,' Nathan thought to himself, 'Everything I need is right here in my arms.'
Next Day
Naruto was sitting behind the girls at the dedication for Alison. When Aria looked back toward him when Jenna was escorted by Jason, and he winked at her, letting her know he handled it. With an uneasy smile, she turned back forward as Jenna began.
"We think we know who we are, but we don't. Not until something bad happens to us, and then all the useless things fall away, and we're left with who we really are. I learnt that from Alison Dilaurentis. My whole life, I thought I knew who she was, but I found out the truth when she came and talked to me at the hospital. I found out that she was the strongest person that I had ever met. And it's her strength that touched so many people. Shaped them. That's her real legacy. That's how her memory will endure, in the actions of those she inspired in so many different ways. From all of us...Thank you, Alison." Jenna said, as everyone smiled at the speech while Hanna, Emily, and Spencer looked surprised.
Later
Aria walked to the new flower shop that opened up recently. She was wondering what was so important that Naruto wanted to meet he here. She hoped it was something good, because after the dedication Jason had given them Alison's bracelet apparently she was wearing it when she died and the police found it, meaning A made a copy of it and made sure that she and her friends found it.
Shaking off her thoughts about A for now, she saw Naruto inspecting some flowers, and walked over "Naruto, hey." she greeted
"Good Morning, Aria. Thank you for coming." Naruto said turning to Aria and smiling.
"You said it was important. What did you want to talk about?" Aria asked.
Naruto looked behind him and said, "You can come out now."
Tessa came out from one of the doors. "So this is her. I've been anticipating this meeting for some time. My name is Qetsiyah, but since that's a bit old-fashioned, you can just call me Tessa."
"What's this all about?" Aria asked confused.
"Aria," Nathan said, "Haven't you been wondering what's been happening to you since you came back? Why you can move objects with your mind? Why you can blast me across the basket ball court and break my spine?"
"I-I don't" Aria stopped talking when Nathan held out his hand and conjured a ball of lightning. Qetsiyah waved her hand and vines grew along the walls.
"You're a witch, Aria." Naruto said.
2 Weeks Later
3 Miles Outside of Rosewood
2 men were running through the woods for their life, trying to make it to town, when two blurs shot behind them, and they were carried into the trees, and pained screams were heard.
Suddenly a man and woman walked out of the tree line smiling, with blood dribbling from their mouths, before man noticed the Rosewood sign, and put an arm around his girlfriends shoulder, "Hey honey, you think, this place would make a good home for us?" he asked
The woman smiled "I've always liked roses." she said causing her boyfriend to smile, before they both walked toward the town. They moment they tried to enter though, they screamed as their bodies disintegrated, leaving only their clothes behind.
Marin House
Naruto was asleep, when suddenly his eyes snapped opened as his true face fully emerged.
Later
Naruto was at the Rosewood sign and began to look around, coming up to the tree line he saw 2 corpses, that looked to have been ripped apart by an animal, but he knew better, with a frown he went about disposing the bodies. He saw the clothes of the Vampires, disintergrated after trying to enter the town. He had added that little function in the event the compulsions on the dome did not keep supernaturals away, though it would not keep out the Originals or super strong witches.
Spencer's House
Aria, who was distracting herself from the huge revelation Naruto had recently dropped on her, was currently with Spencer, and Hanna studying for the SAT'S.
"This is insane. How many words do they expect you to learn in one night?" Hanna asked.
"Stringent." Aria said looking at a index card.
"Uh, tough. Inflexible." Spencer answered.
"It's not like you're gonna actually use 'em." Hanna said.
"Meretricious." Aria said.
"I mean, it's not like you go to college and you just start speaking a completely different language." Hanna said.
"Meretricious, um, phony, flashy?" Spencer asked.
"Mm-hmm." Aria nodded looking for another index card, before Hanna reached into the empty box of food and grabbed a soggy chip, and began to nibble on it.
"Oh, Hanna, why are you still eating that?" Spencer asked.
" 'Cause it's here." Hanna shrugged.
"Put it in the garbage." Spencer said.
"Then I'd have to stand over the garbage and eat it." Hanna replied.
"Besotted." Aria said.
"Infatuated, enamored, in love with." Spencer said.
"Hey, what did Noel Kahn say to you after the memorial?" Hanna wondered looking to Aria.
"Hanna, we are taking the SAT's in less than 12 hours. Can we focus?" Spencer asked.
"Okay, Spencer, you do not need to know any more big words. You're already scary enough to anyone under 50." Hanna joked lightly.
"I'm not scary!" Spencer whined before she looked to Aria "Am I scary?"
"A little." Aria nodded.
"Hey, I saw Noel Kahn hug you, and he did not wanna let go." Hanna smiled.
"Talk about not wanting to let something go." Aria said looking over to Hanna.
"Why can't you give him a chance? He's smart, he's cute, his dad owns, like, half of Rhode Island, and he's got great lips." Hanna listed.
"His father?" Spencer asked.
"No. Ew." Hanna grimaced before she looked to Aria "Seriously, Aria, you and Noel would look amazing together."
"Can we just drop it, please? I'm not looking for anything more than a friend." Aria sighed.
"Why? Don't you have enough on Facebook? Besides, don't you want someone real, someone you can, I don't know, scratch and sniff?"
"Wow. Maybe you should just eat that over the garbage." Spencer giggled.
"Look, I am trying to help out a friend here. We don't all have smoking hot ball boys from the country club."
"And we don't all live with smoking hot billionaires." Spencer retorted causing Hanna to blush lightly.
"Hey, what is going on with you and Alex? Is he back from that tournament?" Aria asked.
"Yeah. He's back." Spencer said with a smile.
"And?" Aria asked.
"And it's good. It's so good. I want it to last, but I'm afraid I'm gonna blow it." Spencer confessed.
"So, when can we officially call him the boyfriend?" Aria asked happy for her friend, but before they could continue Spencer saw her mom.
"Hi, mom." Spencer greeted, as her mom placed her purse on the island.
"Hey, Mrs. Hastings." Hanna, and Aria greeted.
"Hi, girls. Oh, what smells so good?" Vanessa Hastings asked.
"Garlic bread. Want some?" Spencer offered.
"I can't. God, I miss food. Eat some butter for me, will you? Why do I have so many messages?" Vanessa asked looking through her phone as Aria looked to Spencer.
"Hey, maybe you should ask Alex to," Aria began but Spencer grabbed her leg.
"Stop." Spencer whispered glancing to her mom.
"Your mom still doesn't know?" Hanna asked.
"Like I said, I want it to last." Spencer whispered back.
"Where's Emily?" Vanessa asked walking to the sink.
"She's probably on her way over." Spencer said not knowing that Emily was home soaked and muddy as she looked panicked.
2 Days later
It was the middle of the day as Naruto was at his locker when he saw Hanna talking to Mona, who was having a party in the woods, as Mona walked away and Hanna looked upset he walked over meeting Spencer, and Emily on the way.
"What was that about?" Naruto asked.
"Um, "A" sent Mona a text, and I think she just broke up with me." Hanna said upset.
"A" sent Mona a text?" Spencer asked surprised.
"I'm so over that bitch." Hanna said looking back at Mona who was with her 2 friends.
"I thought you guys were still close." Emily asked.
"Not Mona." A."
"Well, what did it say?" Naruto asked.
"It doesn't really matter. It's all lies." Hanna said.
"Hanna, I'm so sorry. I know that Mona's really important to you."
She was my friend when you guys weren't." Hanna said.
"Well, we're here now, so if you're not going to the party, then we're not going either." Emily said getting a nod from Spencer.
"No! No, you're going on that scavenger hunt, and I'm going too. "A" might be playing games, but I'm not." Hanna replied.
"Let me talk to her." Naruto said making to walk to Mona but Hanna grabbed him.
"No, I'll deal with Mona." Hanna said.
"If you say so." Naruto said looking over to Mona, everything was telling him that Mona needed to die, but she was still Hanna's friend so he would stay his hand, till the friendship was really over.
Later
Hanna was in the parking lot waiting for Spencer, Emily and Aria when she heard something and ducked down between two cars and peeked out to see someone in a jacket running off.
"Hanna?" Aria called as she and the others walked into the parking lot with flashlights.
Hanna turned to see her friends and smiled. Before she began to jog her way toward them when the girls saw a car speeding at Hanna.
"Hanna! Watch out!"
Naruto who was about to leave looked up and sped toward the girls to see a car about to hit Hanna and sped forward.
The girls watched in shock and horror as Naruto appeared out of no where and wrapped Hanna in a hug, as the car mowed them down with Naruto's neck snapping as his legs broke while peices of the windshield cut up his face.
"Oh my god!" Aria screamed running for the two with Spencer and Emily.
Hanna blinked as she felt her leg throb as it was broken while tears welled up in her eyes as she saw Naruto had blood dripping down his face, she also saw Spencer, and the others running over.
"Oh my god. Naruto!" Spencer yelled reaching down to touch him but they all jumped back when he gasped as his true face manifested. The girls watched in shock as Naruto snapped his shoulder and leg back in place, and took a piece of glass from his forehead allowing the wound to close, before he looked at them. He looked to Hanna who fainted the last thing she saw was Naruto's face returning to normal.
"Hanna!" Naruto yelled turning her onto her back and looking her over, "Her leg is broken, but she's alright."
Naruto looked up to see Emily and Spencer looking at him "Call an ambulance!"
The girls jumped and quickly called 911, "Naruto, you have to go. You're covered in blood, and you're not even supposed to be here." Aria said causing Naruto to frown.
"I'll meet you at the hospital." Naruto said before he vamp sped away.
Aria looked to Emily and Spencer and spoke "I know you both have questions but we need to worry about Hanna now."
The girls nodded.
Later
Rosewood Hospital
Naruto walked passed Lucas on his way into the waiting room having completed changing to a black long sleeve, black jeans and black sneakers. First thing he saw was Ashley walking over to the girls.
"Is she okay, Mrs. Marin?" Aria asked.
"S-She is going to be all right. She, uh She has a broken leg and a broken ankle, bruised ribs, and they might have to remove her spleen." Ashley said getting choked up "What happened?"
The girls looked at each other before they saw Naruto behind Ashley, "Hanna was coming across the parking lot, and this car just came out of nowhere." Spencer said looking at Naruto.
"Well, the police found the car. They said it was stolen from a campground lot." Ashley said.
"Did they catch the driver?" Naruto asked causing Ashley to turn to him and smile pulling him into a hug.
"No, not yet." Ashley said causing Naruto to nod.
"Well, the cops should be looking for Toby Cavanaugh." Spencer said with a frown.
"It wasn't Toby Cavanaugh. The police picked him up last night." Ashley said turning to the girls.
"What?" Emily asked.
"Yeah, one of the officers told me they found him hiding in town, and they were bringing him in to the station when they got the call about Hanna. You girls should go home. I will call you when Hanna can have visitors."
"Just let Hanna know that we were here." Aria said.
'I will when she wakes up." Ashley nodded.
"I'll walk you guys out " Naruto said, walking with the girls to the elevator and when he and Aria got in, Spencer and Emily looked hesitant, "If I wanted to hurt you I would've already."
Spencer and Emily got into the elevator, as once the doors closed Naruto looked at the three, "What happened?"
"Hanna had texted us that she knew who A was and we were going to meet her when the car came." Aria said.
"You think that they were just trying to scare us?" Emily asked.
"Well it worked." Aria said.
"Should we tell the cops?" Emily asked.
"Tell them what?" Spencer.
"Everything." Emily said.
"We don't know everything."
"Well know this, it won't matter of you tell the cops or not. Because once I find A, I'm going to kill them." Naruto said with a cold look on his face.
"What are you?" Spencer asked.
"A vampire." Naruto said.
"W-wha, but how is that possible?" Emily asked.
'That's a very long story." Naruto said looking over to them "For now, all you need to know is that I'm not going to hurt you guys."
"What about Allison? Did she know?" Spencer asked.
"Yes." Naruto said causing they're eyes to widen, "But I didn't kill her. I would be glad to tell you more but I need to get back to Hanna, and Ashely. We'll pick this up another time."
"Is Hanna safe here?" Aria asked.
"I won't leave her side." Naruto said with a nod.
The girls got off the elevator and Naruto took it back up.
Next Morning
Hanna had just awoken and the first thing she was her mom, and after they talked for a while she had her mom call the girls and watched as she left the room.
"You gave us quite the scare."
Hanna jumped as she saw Naruto sitting in a corner, "H-how long have you been there."
"All night." Naruto said standing up and walking forward to sit beside her with his back turned to the window, "Do you remember what happened?"
"Yeah. I remember all of it." Hanna said looking at Naruto, "Your face."
Naruto allowed his true face to manifest watching as Hanna gasped, "I'll tell you anything you want to know."
Hanna looked at Naruto for a moment and opened her mouth to speak.
Chapter Finished
I decided to combine Shawn's last 3 chapters together. Next one will be all original.
