Author's Note: You guy's should feel special, I wasn't planning on updating anything until tomorrow, simply because I've been so busy and my wifi been cut off, but since I'm at my grandmas house I decided to go ahead and give you another chapter ;) Anyway, I'm not too proud of this chapter... Simply because I feel like I didn't accomplish much, but my writing mindset has been drained because of Nanowrimo and it's only day 2 DX Oh well... My updating may be slightly erratic for a little while, just until I get my internet back, but I'll try my best :) Love you all, and I really appreciate you guys reading this! :D

The group happily sat at Ichiraku's, waiting for the man behind the counter to finish making their food as they chatted amongst each other. Erza sat next to Kakashi, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke on Kakashi's other side. Erza watched the man behind the counter curiously, and Kakashi seemed to take notice as he looked over at her.

"What, do they not have Ramen stand's at that 'guild' of yours?" He teased, smiling behind the mask as he looked at her.

Erza chuckled, returning his smile as she shook her head, "No, we don't actually. Is that surprising?"

Kakashi nodded, "Honestly, yes. Especially after being around Naruto for so long." He added with a laugh, and Erza joined him. "I want to hear more about this guild hall you mentioned, maybe more information could help us find it."

The red-head blinked in surprise before grinning at him, nodding in excitement, "Alright. Well, my guild, Fairy Tail, is basically the family that I never had. We laugh together, cry together, fight together… It's the one place you can go and feel at home." Her tone was whimsical as she recalled her home, the ramen that had been placed in front of them going cold. She told him about Natsu, Gray, and Lucy; how they could be so moronic on one hand, and yet so brave and selfless on the other.

Kakashi listened intently the entire time, and when the ramen was eaten and paid for, she had him tell her about the Leaf Village. It was dark when they walked into Kakashi's home, and Erza finally began to feel her exhaustion as she looked at the couch she had slept on the night before.

With a yawn, she turned and gave Kakashi a tiny smile, "Goodnight, Kakashi. Thank you for today, it meant a lot to me… Really." She told him, requipping into her night clothes after turning to head towards the couch.

"No problem, Erza. I enjoyed hearing about your home… Goodnight." He added after heading to his own room, glancing back once before heading in.

She smiled and laid on the couch, staring up at the moonlight reflected on the ceiling as she thought about the day's events. No sooner than Erza had fallen asleep, Kakashi snuck out of his window to report to the Hokage, wanting to let him know that the girl was still no threat. He might've been suspicious at the beginning, but after hearing her talk so passionately about her home, he couldn't bring himself to mistrust her. She just seemed to ooze goodness, but he still had to keep his guard up, just in case. Even he could be wrong.

While he was gone, a dark figure crept into his house from the window he left open, going through the cracked bedroom door as it crept towards Erza. Only a few feet away from the sleeping girl, Erza's eyes flashed open and she instantly had a sword in her hand and her pajamas switched with her armor, pointing the blade at the figure as she peered into the darkness. "Who's there?"

A flash of white glinted in the dark as the person smiled, and she could see as the figure's hands move together into a hand sign of some sort, and in the next instant she felt her eyelids grow heavy. "Wha-" she began, before her legs gave way and she hit the ground, sword rolling from her hand as her eyes closed.

The figure grinned as it looked down at its prize, easily lifting her up as they left the sword on the ground, Erza lying limply over its shoulder. Leaving out the main door, the shadow quickly ran towards the outskirts of the Leaf Village, remaining clothed in darkness as she was rushed away.

"Alright Kakashi, just be careful. We don't want to trust the wrong person and end up with people hurt." The third said gruffly, and Kakashi nodded in response.

"No worries, I got a good view of her abilities today when I tested her. I made sure to drag it on for as long as possible to see just what she can do." The ninja said with a smile before bowing, "I'll let you know if anything of interest happens."

The Hokage nodded his agreement before Kakashi left the room, heading to his house in relatively high spirits. When he went in through his window, he grew suspicious when he saw that his door was open to the living room. Taking out a kunai, he slowly walked into the living room, moving his headband up to make sure he didn't miss anything. When he saw the sword lying on the ground, his eyes widened and he looked around wildly, noticing the front door that was wide open.

He saw how the blanket had been thrown to the floor, and the way the sword was haphazardly laying on the ground, and he instantly knew that something had happened to her. He doubted that she had simply left in that fashion, she seemed too proper for that.

Panic settling in his stomach, Kakashi sprinted from the room and headed towards the Hokage's office, planning to create a search party to find her. He doubted it would be anything too dangerous, so he could take his students along with him. He figured someone had caught her off guard, perhaps with a surprise Ninjustsu or a well place Genjutsu, he doubted she'd been trained to fight them off.

Erza groaned as she awoke, head aching as she opened her eyes to look around the room. It was pitch black, and she could feel that her arms and legs were bound in metal shackles. Footsteps sounded from the other side of the room, and Erza's head jerked up as she requipped a sword into her hands.

"Tsk tsk, Erza. I wouldn't do that if I were you." A man's voice spoke with the hint of a smirk from in front of her, and suddenly she felt a presence on her right as well when a kunai was pushed to her throat. "Maybe if you tell me about these powers of yours, I'll consider letting you go free." He grinned, squatting down so they could be face to face, his breath hitting her nose as he spoke.
