AN: finally I have a new chapter to put up. School has been hectic and my grandpa was in the hospital. Luckily he's better now, but the bad news is that my muse up and left me. It was a very bad day. Anyways if you like it yay you, if you don't why do you keep bothering to even read this?

Disclasimer: I own absolutely nothing in this story except for the name Haileigh cause it's mine.

ENJOY!

Haileigh's POV

I'm still trying to get a grip on reality. I was pulled through a dark hole and I ended up in a ninja village. (How in the hell could this have happened?) Someone or something took me away from my sister and my whole life. (This sucks!) I'm really hoping that Tsunade will be able to find something. God, yesterday was so hectic (I'll be ok as long as there aren't a ton of people in my room again)

Kakashi's POV

I haven't been able to read my book at all. My thoughts keep turning back to her. The way her eyes sparkled with mischief and caring. (STOP!) Every single time, I can't even concentrate on training my team. I think Sakura knows what's wrong with me, and Naruto and Sauske remain clueless. I need to try and sleep, maybe tomorrow will be better. Maybe I should go and visit her.

Sakura's POV

I was on my way to the hospital once again. I know I really don't have to but I want to. Now that Haileigh is awake I can actually talk to her (I hope she'll want to talk). When I got to the hospital I spoke with the nurse at the front desk and she let me go through. I knocked on the door and quietly entered, Haileigh was just sitting and staring into space. Her eyes were a dull grey (weren't her eyes blue?) "Haileigh?" I waved my hand in front of her face. I nearly jumped out of my skin when she grabbed hold of my wrist. (When did she move?) "sorry" I heard her say quietly. "It's alright" I told her as I sat down. "Sakura right?" I nodded my head. "I know you want to ask me something, so ask"

(She's quick and to the point) I laughed little nervously and saw the corner of her mouth turn up into a slight smile. "Okay", I took a deep breath then asked the first thing that popped into my head. "Who beat you up so badly?" her eyes instantly dulled more than they already were. (Maybe I shouldn't have asked that) she gave a teary sigh and quickly rubbed her eyes. "My dad" my eyes widened and I looked up, she was looking right at me. "Why?" it was all that could come out of my mouth. "I really don't know, I guess he finally just snapped" "Why do you live with him then?" "I don't" (then how?) "I live with my mom, step-dad, my sister Kendra, and my step-sister Brogan" I nodded my head to let her know that I was following what she was saying. "I was on my way home from school when I saw my dad's truck sitting in our driveway. I was confused at first, and then I started to get upset and a pain started to fill my chest." "Why did your chest hurt?"

I had to ask. "Whenever I start to really upset or super stressed out, I end up with an anxiety attack." "oh" she nods her head in response and then she continues on. "I got inside and my sister was in the kitchen. I asked her if she was alright, she just shook her head. I then made my way to where my parents were fighting and my mom left to go check on Kendra. My dad just wanted to "talk" to me." I think it's funny and cute how she uses her hands to help her tell a story. (her eyes changed again, now a stormy blue) "So I sat down to talk to him and well, talking led to yelling and then he started hurting me, I blacked out and that's all I really remember" I wiped my eyes. (She's pretty much been through hell)

I looked at Haileigh and saw stray tears running down her face. I quickly got up and wiped them away. It was quiet for a little while then she spoke, "I finally figured out who you remind me of" she had a slight smile that reached her eyes a little bit. I was shocked that I reminded her of someone, especially since this is only the second time that we've talked. "Who?" "You remind me of my little sister Kendra. You're both the same age" I was amazed. "I would do absolutely anything to keep my sister safe, I would die to protect her. I feel horrible that she's all alone and I can't be with her." She started to rub furiously at her eyes. "I'm sorry Sakura, could I be by myself now. I really need to think" I nodded and got up, but when I made it to the door I stopped and turned to look at her. Haileigh looked so sad and lost. I quickly went up to her and gave her a hug to show her that I care for her. Then I turned and left. I decided to head home, I had thinking of my own to do.

Kakashi's POV

(Sakura beat me to the room first) I sighed quietly and listened in on their conversation. I could hear the anger in Haileigh's words as she told her story. I clenched my hands tightly. I was right about it being a man that hurt her, but I never expected it to be her father. I couldn't hear what else was said, and when Sakura left the room I hid myself in the shadows. As soon as she disappeared from view I entered the room. There she was, she looked sad and slightly broken. I froze slightly when she looked at me. Her eyes were a dull grey color and slightly watery. "Hello" she said quietly. "H-i" great my voice cracked (What the HELL is wrong with me?) She smiled slightly. I moved to the side of the bed and sat down. Haileigh returned to staring at the wall, but she soon spoke. "How old are you?" I could hear the curiosity in her voice. I knew she was asking because of my hair. "I'm 26" she turned her head to look at me, I could see the skepticism in her eyes. "Seriously? But your hair is grey" "I'm serious, and I prefer silver. My hair has always been like this" "alrighty than, who are you?"

"I'm Kakashi Hatake, and you?" I already knew her name, but I asked anyways. "Haileigh, and I dye my hair" She smiled and I couldn't help but laugh a little bit. "Really? Then what's your natural hair color?" She had to stop and think about it for a moment, then she shrugged. "I really don't even remember anymore. Brownish-blonde I think, but I've dyed it so much that I forgot"

I laughed and she seemed a little irritated at first, but she shook her head and smiled. "You're the one that ran into the door the other day" That stopped my laughter and I was thankful for my mask because a sudden blush rose up onto my face. I rubbed the back of my neck and she laughed. "I'm sorry, didn't mean to embarrass you" "it's alright" It was quiet for a moment. "You know you're the first person who hasn't asked me why I wear a mask" She looked at me and her eyes suddenly lit to a beautiful sapphire blue. "I love mysteries, and you and your mask have definitely sparked my interest. I look forward to solving it" I was caught off guard by what she said and my heart started to race.

We stared and each other for what seemed like forever until a nurse came in. "Oh, I'm sorry but Haileigh-san needs to rest now" Haileigh's eyes suddenly flashed in irritation and anger. She obviously hates being stuck here, and I understand how she feels. I got up and made my way to the door and I made the mistake of looking back at her. She caught my eye and I couldn't describe what I saw in them, and then she spoke. "See you soon Kakashi" and then she winked at me, and I once again ran into the door. I'm NEVER caught off guard. I quickly left to the sounds of her and the nurse giggling. (DAMMIT!) I need a drink badly.

Haileigh's Pov

First Sakura and then Kakashi. I can't stop thinking about him either. It was nice talking to him. I wonder what his voice sounds like without that damn mask. At least it'll be fun solving this mystery or at least interesting. Stupid hospital and stupid nurse. When can I just fucking leave already? I at least got to have some fun in making Kakashi run into a door again. Sleep is starting to take over again. Maybe Tsunade will have some info for me tomorrow.
