A new and longer chapter :)

Me and these strange people ran for a while, but it never bothered me, as I never complained ever. I had a feeling that the days ahead would not be good for me. I could just only hope that I could make it here. I truly missed Damon, that sweet-natured, green-eyed boy. I grabbed hold of my necklace and squeezed it, vowing to live on in this life for Damon.

Vowing that I would not go down, not without a fight.

I was so caught up in my thoughts that the others had stopped running. I gasped and stumbled right into someone. "Sorry," I mumbled as I looked up. The man began to shiver and sweat. "I-It's no pr-problem," the guy scratched the back of his head, smiling and slowly backing away from me. I raised an eyebrow in confusion.

Weird, I thought.

I looked to see the others watching me. Watching as if waiting for something big to happen. They all seemed to shiver in anticipation. I shifted uncomfortably. Looking forward, I noticed a large stone wall. My eyes widened in surprise and wonder.

I craned my neck, looking as it reached higher and higher towards the sky.

Then the walls began to heave as if they were being moved by some unknown force. They began groaning as they were being opened. "Beautiful isn't it?" A voice appeared from nowhere. I looked around to finally see someone with dark brown hair and blue eyes, grinning. "Isn't it?" He asked that same question again. I nodded.

He stopped grinning, but he never stopped smiling. "Look down, near the ground at the wall." He continued. I saw two of his comrades, bent forward, with their fists out. Wow, I thought as I observed them. From what I could tell, they have been doing this for a while. Blue eyes seemed to read my mind.

"Yes they have," he told me without looking. By the time the gates were fully open, the redhead moved straight ahead. I ran once again with the others. The landscape was beautiful. I slowed to a walk, to look at it some more. "This is our home," Blue eye's voice came from nowhere.

Blue eyes seemed to have an easy-going and light attitude.

"It's beautiful," I whispered then fell silent once again. "What's your name stranger?" Spoke blue eyes. "Lynn," I told him, looking him in the eyes. "Well Lynn! My name's Kin!" He yelled and grinned happily. "It's nice to meet ya!" I jumped a little at his enthusiasm.

This guy's smile seemed to light up the place, like one of the street lamps, but only brighter.

I noticed that we were making our way toward a huge building that over-looked the place. "What is this place called Kin?" Kin happily replied. "Sunagakure, village hidden in the sand." I nodded out of habit.

We stopped in front of the main building of the village. There were no doors, only windows. I looked at Kin sweat dropping. He only shrugged in response. I could feel sand shift around my feet. I noticed Kin was being shifted also.

I saw the others run up the wall towards a huge window.

I felt uneasy as we were lifted off the ground. My footwork was sloppy and uncoordinated, as I began to feel myself fall backwards. "Whoa there Lynn." Kin grabbed my hands, preventing me from falling to my death. Why did this guy help me, I thought. He could've just let me fall. I looked at him questionably.

Kin seemed to ignore my stare.

We were suddenly thrusted onto a concrete floor. I landed on my feet, keeping my balance. I noticed that Kin never let go of my hands. It was beginning to feel uncomfortable, because I didn't like being touched. I cleared my throat and wiggled my fingers, indicating for him to let go. He blushed before letting go.

I noticed that we were in some sort of office, meeting room.

There was a large round table with chairs all around it. The redhead came out of nowhere, standing in front of me and Kin. Kin jumped in surprise as I stayed calm. He still hadn't let go of my hand and began to shake. Kin still looked forward, fear pooling his blue eyes as he continued to stare at the redhead. "Kazekage." Kin started the fear evident in his voice.

I squeezed his hand as he turned to look at me. "Come sit," was all the so called Kazekage fellow said before walking to the large table and sitting. I led the frozen Kin to the table as he sat, while I did the same. He finally let go of my hand, as the others came and sat as well.

"Who are you? I expect you to tell me everything." Stated the Kazekage guy. "I well," I thought then stopped. How should I begin?
