The next day comes so fast for the three girls, Kasinta Mankua, a tall girl. Long soft blond hair with pink and blue streaks in it. Peircing green eyes that shimmers with such confidence, even though she is terribly paranoid and had such a horrible life. The next girl's life isn't much better. Her name is Esukana Nyua. Her medium brown hair hung shoulder length. Her light blue eyes look abstract against her dark hair. She seems like she is the most mature in the group. The there is Sutani, the most messed up of all. She has the most beautiful long, red hair. Her eyes are just as green as Kasinta's. Kasinta and Sutani look similar, their faces, their eyes, but you can always tell the difference, not because their hair or clothes, but in their eyes. Sutani's eyes show none of that obvious confidence that Kasinta's do, all you can see is sorrow.

Today is the day that they have been waiting for, both in excitement and in fear. They are to move to a new town, the Village Hidden in the Leaves. The only thing that made them okay with this meandering transportation is that they are going to be together, all of them, including their sensei, Asuki Hatumi. He is a very tall man. Very thin and some say very attractive. His hair is long in the back and spiky on the top, so shiny and brown. All of them are extremely loaded and ready to leave, but when they get to their new home Sutani is very quiet. Her friends thought she would be most excited of them all since her life was the worse of all in the last place. She isn't acting right. Very sad and lonely, she mopes around all the time. This bright, sweet, enthusiastic girl is now always sleeping, not wanting to do the missions that she once loved.

The first full day the four of them are there, Sutani doesn't even get out of bed at all. She sits there, awake, thinking to herself. "Was this a big mistake, I have a horrible feeling about being her, should I have said something." These thoughts just keep filling her head. She wants to be glad, to be joyful, but she just finds it too futile. She wants to go back, her brother and sister probably miss her. She knows she misses them. Sutani doesn't want to upset her teammates, her best friends, her sisters. She wants them to be happy, even if she is desolate and alone. The agonizing, hunger pains can't even persuade her to move.

The lack of carbohydrates makes her energy so low she can't even keep her eyes open long enough to look through the pictures that she cherishes. The ones of her whole family together. The one when she was two, being held by her mom, with her dad, brother, and three sisters. Just thinking about her past brought images, and those images, sadly brought her tears. The tears simply roll down her round cheeks and off into her ears. She builds up enough energy to glance at her album. Her face was always so happy, with her whole family, then her mother, brother, and sister. Then just her brother and sister. She doesn't have a pictures from the years she was six to eight. She looks at the pictures from when she's nine and doesn't remember that happening. Each photograph her face got older and it also got gloomier and gloomier.

Sutani can remember the feelings she felt when these pictures where taken. Most of them have hatred, but all of them have sorrow. She finally gets to the ones from the last year. Her face slowly grows a smile as she recalls those happy memories shared with Kasinta and Esukana. Them cleaning up after a food fight, or just them watching movies upside down. She is still unsure about being in this new place, but the idea that she got to move in with her best friends makes it all the better. The sun is fading fast, and so is Sutani's awareness. She soon falls asleep still weary of the day to come.

"Tani, get up, Tani," calls a voice that Sutani didn't recognize at first. She partly opens her eyes, but can't see the image of a person in the room with her. All of the sudden Sutani's blanket is pulled off her, exposing her long body in a pair of boy shorts and a retro tee.

"What was that for?" Sutani questions while starting to sit up.

"I'm trying to get you out of bed." She finally notices it is her teammate, Kasinta.

"Kasi, I don't want to get up."
"Well, I want you to, and so does Esu, and Asuki."

"Why should I get up?"

"It's a nice day, birds are singin', sun's shinin', just because we had to leave our last home doesn't mean we can't enjoy this one."

"I still don't want to."

"Well, if you don't get up now, I will personally drag you out in what you're wearing now," Kasinta argues while towering over Sutani.

"Fine, I'll go out and walk around with you two, but then I get to sleep the rest of the day."

"Fine, unless one of us can get you to laugh."

"Wait, what?"

"If Esu or I get you to laugh, chuckle, or giggle the tiniest bit, you can't go to sleep until we let you."

"Fine." Kasinta goes off and leaves Sutani to get dressed. Sutani doesn't want to go out, but she promised her friends. Just then she hears a terrible scream and a bang. Sutani runs out as fast as she can. She is so scared. Did Drake follow them, she is so very confused. "What is goin' on?" Sutani screams.

"I'm so sorry, I saw a spider on the pan that I picked up to clean," Esukana confesses.

"Oh my god, you scared the shit out of me," Kasinta joins.

"I thought 'he' followed us here," Sutani cries.

"Me too," Kasinta replies.

"I'm so sorry guys, I just really hate spiders that much."

"We understand," Sutani agrees.

"We should get going, we want to enjoy as much of this day as we possibly can," Kasinta squeals in sheer contentment.

"Yea, enjoy," Sutani comments in a very fake, happy tone.

"Cheer up, it's nice here and 'he' doesn't even know anything," Esukana insists

"I guess you guys are right, thanks."

"Just remember, it can't be that bad," Kasinta went on.

"Yea." The girls get dressed and head to explore the Village Hidden in the Leaves.
