Please review!

For anyone wondering only a small percentage of Legally Blind people see nothing at all. Darkness is the eye telling you that there is no light on. People who are (totally blind) do not have the ability to see light, or darkness. They see nothing at all. Kagome falls into that small percentage.

Oh and also I aplogize ahead of time for any of the Naruto charaters and I know Kagome doesn't cuss but if I was in this setting I'd be cussing too!

'It hurts' she thought upon waking as she slowly pulled her body out of the mud. Had she had a mirror and been able to see her face she would have saw nicks, cuts, and bruises. Her ankle was also sprained as she thought, limped through the left over mess of the mudslide, what she was going to do next.

'It would be best if I just stayed here, but what if no one comes? Then I should keep moving but, which way am I going it's still warm out so can I assume that it's still daylight?' she sighed.

'Well I guess I should continue walking and hope I come across some one who'll help me. I should probably practice my words too damnit Naraku why didn't you force me to learn my words better! Well he did at least make me learn to say help even if it was three years ago. Now lets see the first step is to open your mouth like you're about to yawn.' she slowly opened her mouth 'then put your tongue on the top of your bottom teeth okay got that now here comes the hard part I've got to force the air across my voice box and out of my throat will pulling my tongue across the top of my teeth closing my mouth will simultaneously getting ready to force out the next syllable. Check now for the next syllable you push your tongue up against your teeth and fill your month cavity with air and force it all out like you've been choking.'

She took in a deep breath and then tried her best to sound out 'help'

"Hepu" 'Somehow I get the feeling like that didn't go according to plan. Great all that energy wasted and now my throat hurts.'

She sighed and started limping toward some unknown destination stumbling occasionally but got determined to find help.

'Besides if I do somehow find some way to get back home alive maybe father will stop treating me as his greatest failure.'

"Naruto how many time's do I have to tell you, you can't kill the client." Kakashi said.

"But sensei he called me a runt!" a kawaii blonde haired blue eyed boy said(you've got to admit whenever he's got his eyes open and that confused look on his face he is rather cute or just stupid looking but I've always thought stupid was cute on 12 year old boys unless it's the annoying kind of stupid but confused stupid is better looking great now I've confused myself stupid.)

Kakashi let go of Naruto who fell back in line behind Sasuke and Sakura.

"Dobe" Sasuke said in a monotone voice.

"Baka" Sakura stated.

Naruto didn't even bother with a response he just sighed.

'I wish I had a friend other than Iruka-sensei, they don't even have to be a good one I just wish I had someone who knew what it felt like to be this lonely. It really sucks be surrounded by people yet still be on the outside. Maybe if I had someone to share my loneliness with it wouldn't be that bad.'

Everyone all was surprised when Naruto didn't say a word but just brushed it off as an odd fluke. They all walked in silence until someone's stomach growled.

"Naruto there is a stream near by go refill the canteens, Sasuke Sakura go get some fire wood we'll camp here tonight the sun will be setting soon." Kakashi said setting down on a rock to ask the bridge builder some more questions.(They haven't met up with the water ninja's yet)

Naruto walked off into the forest wondering how in the world his sensei knew where the stream was. About five minutes of walking he came to the small stream his sensei must have been talking about. It was very clear he could see to the bottom of it and he wagered that if walked out into it, it wouldn't come up past his knees. He sighed and bent over to refill the water canteens when he spotted something out of the corner of his eye. He turned to get a good look at it and saw it was a blue hair ribbon. He picked it up, it was made of silk.

'Who ever dropped this will probably miss it and WHO KNOWS MAYBE THEY'LL GIVE ME A REWARD OR SOMETHING!' he thought excitedly he then looked down at the water canteen.

'But I have a duty to finish my mission.' he looked back down at the ribbon 'Walking upstream a bit can't hurt and if Kakashi asks I'll just say I was scouting out my surroundings like any good ninja should besides maybe I'll get to talk to someone who doesn't hate me' with that he pocketed the ribbon, picked up the canteens, and started walking upstream.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

'I definitely should have stayed where I was' Kagome thought miserably as she sat in the middle of a shallow stream her long hair floating about her. She had been walking when her foot slipped into the stream therefore putting most of the wait on her sprained ankle making her cry out and fall into the stream again. She pulled her knees up to her chest and contemplated her options.

'I'm going to die out here aren't I?' an involuntary sob wrenched it's way out of her mouth. She suddenly felt ripples in the water which could only mean one thing.

'Someone's in the water with me. Oh great what if they're rapist. Naraku told me about that one girl from the neighbors and how lucky I am that I'm ugly and no one want a stupid deaf blind bitch.' more tears came out from her eyes.

She suddenly smelt something under her nose.

'Sandalwood? Little brother smells like sandalwood could it possibly be?'

She called out his name and launched herself in the general direction of the smell and was thankful that there was a body there.

'Little brother!' she pulled the body closer to her 'Wait this isn't little brother. This person's hair is spiked and thicker than little brothers he's also shorter.' she sobbed again and let go of the person falling to her knees. She was sobbing so much it was getting hard to breath. When she had been little she used to knock herself out because she would become so frantic in thinking she was alone. She always had a sneaking suspicion that Naraku had been there all the time and was laughing at her suffering.

She then reached back up and grabbed this person's hand and then she felt what was in it.

'My hair ribbon this person brought it back to me, that means they can't be all bad right?'

She took in a deep breath and tried to pronounce the one word she had been practicing all morning.

"Hemlp" she took a deep breath

"Helmp" she took a deep breath again.

"Helllpa" she sank back into the water.

'Please get the message'

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Naruto had never been more stunned in his whole life. He had seen the girl sitting out in the middle of the stream crying her hair was down and she had on a blue kimono so he could only assume and came from her and that she was crying over her lost ribbon.

"Miss?" he said when he got no response he walked closer to the girl.

"Miss?" he said a bit louder.

When he got no response again he walked out into the stream he saw her stiffen. He was a little hurt by that. 'Everywhere I go people are afraid of me well I can at least ask her my question.'

He put the hair ribbon down by her face where she could see it "Miss is this yours?" he asked looking at the top of her head. He was caught off guard when she suddenly threw herself up and grabbed hold of him. Shouting out what sounded like 'brother'. He was shocked it was the first hug he had ever received in his life. 'Is she really this happy to have her hair ribbon back?' he then felt her fingers in his hair she gripped it so hard it almost hurt. He had been equally surprised when she let him go with a sob and fell back into the water. Only moments later to reach back up and grab his hand. It was then that he saw part of the cause of her strange behavior. Just to make sure his eyes weren't playing tricks on him also to make sure she wasn't some strange distant cousin of the Hyuuga clan he took his free hand and waved it over her eyes.

'So she's blind?' he thought.

"Miss are you okay?" he asked again. He didn't get a reply and that made him wonder. He then saw her take in a deep breath.

"Hemlp" she took a deep breath

"Helmp" she took a deep breath again.

"Helllpa" she sank back into the water.

Her voice sort of sounded like some sort of wounded animal.

"Miss I'll help you, just tell me what's wrong." when he saw the older was starting to get frantic and hyperventaling.

"Miss it's going to be okay!" he said she just gripped his wrist tighter.

"Miss, please stop you're hurting me, Miss please MISS!" he finally yelled and wrenched his wrist from her grip. Kagome let her hands drop to her lap.

'This person doesn't understand we'll maybe if I' she thought

Naruto looked back at the girl she had brought her hands up to her eyes and covered them, then she covered her ears too she kept repeating the motions. He then grabbed her hands and gently brought them up to eyes while saying.

"So you're blind and deaf huh?" pulling them back to his ears.

She nodded vehemently.

"Helllllpa" she said.

"Okay, okay I'll help you." bringing her hands down to his face and nodding so she understood.

The girl let out a big smile and hugged him again.

'I could get used to this' he thought. He helped the girl stand up and led her out of stream. It was then that he noticed that she was limping.

"Here." he made her sit down and picked up her ankle. It was horribly swollen.

"Well the best I can do is wrap it I'll have Kakashi-sensei look at it when we get back." even though he knew the girl couldn't hear him it made him feel better to finally talk to someone and not have them treat him like he was some stupid kid.

He wrapped her ankle and then looked at her hands they moved into some formation then she would then reach down and touch the wrap then make the sign again.

"Oh so is that like your form of talking?" he asked.

The girl then grabbed his hands and made them make the same formation. She then let go of his hands and then pointed at the wrap then grabbed his hands and felt the position that they were in and nodded happily.

"So are you teaching me how to speak like you?" even though he knew she couldn't hear him felt happy that someone was teaching him something and looked happy about it.

So they sat there for awhile he'd give her different things to hold and she would make the symbol for them.

"Hey the sun's about to go down we'd better leave." he said picking up the water canteens again he took a hold of her other hand and led her through the forest.

"There you are Naruto we were about to send out a search party." Kakashi turned around and when he saw the girl behind Naruto he called out.

"Naruto move away from her now!"he said.

"But sensei why?" Naruto asked innocently.

"Because that is the missing-nin Kikyou we have orders to kill her on sight." he grounded out he then saw her hands move in a very similar formation.

"Naruto move she's doing a jitsu!" he pulled a knife out from his pocket and attacked.

Naruto saw his sensei disappear and he turned around to help his new found friend.

'I won't let you hurt her sensei I won't!' he grabbed the girls hands and pulled her down by him.

"Sensei stop!" he yelled.

He saw a glint of something out of the corner of his eye. With an inner strength he never knew he possessed he jump up into the tree pulling the girl along with him.

"STOP IT!" he yelled out.

"NARUTO WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CAN'T GO AGAINST THE SENSEI!" Sakura yelled. Sasuke just sat there with a bored look on his face.

"Naruto listen to me I know you think she's just some innocent girl but she's not she's a monster and she'll destroy us all the second she gets a chance." Kakashi said moving to stand out by the fire looking Naruto in the eyes.

"You know NOTHING!" he yelled he then jumped out of the tree holding Kagome. "Look she's blind!" he waved his hands in front of her eyes. "And deaf" he clapped his hands by her ears. "I don't care if she's this Kikyou person you're talking about right now she's helpless and I'm not going to let you hurt her!"

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

"Master Souta it's getting dark. We should head back to the manor." Naraku said.

"No I have to find Kagome I promised her that much." Souta said walking out further into the darkness.

"With all due respect master your sister is probably dead." Naraku replied.

"Don't say that don't you ever say that again it's your fault this is happening and when I get back to father I'm going to that yo-gkk" he was knocked out.

"As moving as your speech was I can't have you finding your sister whom if by some fluke is still alive won't be for long. Kagura!" he called.

"What do you want Naraku?" a woman floated down on a feather.

"Find the Higurashi girl." he said.

"And when I do?" she asked smiling.

"You know what to do." he looked at and let out a deep chuckle. Kagura flew off on her feather.

"Now that, that's taken care of we've got to get home don't we boy I've got wonderful plans for you." he said to Souta's unconscious form.
