Alright Chapter two is up. YAY! Please enjoy. This chapter is really short, sorry. It looked a lot bigger in the word document :( Anyways, please let me know if you think the Rating is too high. There is nothing to horrible naughty or saucy but Rei does have a mild swearing issue. Again this is a fanfiction so I (unfortunately) don't own any of the characters and whatnot.

Chapter 2

~Earlier that night~

The sun was setting as a young ninja traveled through the forest. He was pale with long, blood-red hair. A large gourd was strapped to his back. He was traveling to a small village known as the Village Hidden in the Ash. He was going to meet with the leader of the village to renew an alliance with them. The mission was not something he was looking forward to. Missions like this normally involved long, boring meetings with a bunch of arguing old men. He couldn't help it though. It was part of his job. It's just one of those things you have to do as leader of Sunagakure: The Kazekage. He was only a few hours away now.

It was later that night when the Kazekage noticed the smoke and orange glow in the sky. It was coming from the village. He quickened his pace, rushing to get there as soon as possible. The Kazekage slowed as he neared the village. He could hear voices as he approached. He jumped into a tall tree to get a better view and was surprised by what he saw. The village was completely destroyed. Half of it was burned to the ground. Whoever attacked this place was still there. A large horde of men were raiding the city for any valuables they could find. Rouge ninjas... he thought to himself. There was nothing he could do at the time so he headed into the forest to make camp for the night.

He had only been running for a few minutes when he came across a clearing in the forest. He dropped down to the ground to find six bodies; five men and a girl. he checked to see if any of them were still alive. The first two were definitely dead; one with a kunai in his throat and the other was beheaded. He came walked over to the next four. Two died of sword wounds to the chest. The next one was dead; it appeared to be from a blow to the head. But the final one...

"Hn?" The girl was still alive? She looked to be about 16 or 17, and was bleeding from multiple wounds. Her pulse was slow but definitely still there. He wondered what to do with her. If she was an enemy it would be stupid to save her. She was probably going to die soon so why not just put her out of her misery? But for some strange reason he couldn't kill her. He picked up the dying kunoichi and the sword that was lying next to her. A small piece of paper fell out of her hand. He reached down and picked it up. It was a small photo of a young man with long brown hair and bright green eyes. He quickly stuffed it in the girl's coat pocket, and then headed farther into the forest.

"All right... don't die" he whispered

What am I doing???

Done! Read and Rate please. Like I said it was really short but it was important to the story. My story is finally compleated and I just have to put the rest of the chapters up. I have no idea how some people can put up one chapter when the rest of their story is not finished. I have rewritten so many things in this story. Everytime I read through it I had to change something! Well, I hope this wasn't too bad...
