Chapter 3

"Kakashi! Kakashi!" said a cheerful voice. Kakashi opened his eyes to see a pair of bright blue eyes staring down at him. He was so shocked that he rolled off of the couch, taking Chihiro down with him. "Ouch!" cried Chihiro from under Kakashi.

"Chihiro!?" Kakashi said, "What is it?"

"Come look Kakashi! Look outside!" said Chihiro, quickly recovering from her fall, she pulled Kakashi over to the window. She pointed outside, "Isn't it beautiful Kakashi? I've never seen anything like it!"

Kakashi rubbed his sleepy eyes and looked out of the window to see what she was looking at, "What am I looking at Chihiro?"

"The light! Isn't it pretty?"

"…Oh, you mean the sunrise? I guess so, why did you want to show it to me?"

"I thought it was special, so I wanted to show it to you," said Chihiro smiling up at Kakashi. He looked down at her for a moment, then smiled and ruffled her hair.

"Thanks for showing it to me then. Are you hungry?"

"Yep," Chihiro nodded.

"I'll get you something to eat then," said Kakashi slowly walking to the kitchen; Chihiro followed. Kakashi sleepily got Chihiro some toast and a glass of orange juice and went back to the couch to sleep.

"Kakashi, aren't you going to eat breakfast with me?" Chihiro asked.

"I'm still tired, let me sleep some more," Kakashi said from the couch.

"Oh…okay," Chihiro said a bit sadly but Kakashi was too sleepy to notice.

Kakashi woke up again about 15 minutes later to the smell of something burning. He shot up and out of the couch and followed his nose to the kitchen, where he found Chihiro standing in front of the toaster, which had black smoke rising out of it. "Chihiro!" Kakashi cried out and he quickly ran over and took the burnt toast out of the toaster.

"Is there something wrong Kakashi?" Chihiro asked.

"You burnt the toast! If you wanted to eat some more then why didn't you wake me up?" Kakashi asked.

"Well, you said you still wanted to sleep. I didn't want to bother you again," Chihiro said looking down at her feet. Kakashi sighed and to began to make more toast.

"Don't worry about it alright?" he said his back facing Chihiro.

"Okay…"

After giving an excuse for being late, Kakashi, Chihiro and team 7 went to get a new mission to complete. Today they had to pick up trash in a local park…oh joy.

"Why are all the missions so lame?" Naruto asked picking up a soda can.

"Just pick up the trash and stop complaining Naruto!" said Sakura.

"I want to go on a death-defying mission where we can totally kick ass!" Naruto said rather loudly.

"What's death-defying?" Chihiro asked.

"Well, Naruto just wants to go on a mission where you fight…dangerous ninja or something like that." Sakura tried explaining to Chihiro.

"What makes them dangerous?"

"Well, the people you fight on some missions are very powerful and you fight them to the death, but there's nothing to worry about. I'm strong enough to take on anyone dattebayo!" said Naruto, ignoring Sasuke's "cough".

"What's death Naruto?" Chihiro asked a bit confused.

"Ah…" Naruto started but didn't continue.

"Baka." Sasuke said.

"Shut up teme!"

"Death is when your heart stops beating and you can't see anything. All there is is darkness." Said Sasuke darkly.

Sakura saw the look on Chihiro's face and quickly added, "Don't worry about it Chihiro! It'll be a long time before you die! So don't think about it anymore, okay?"Chihiro smiled, nodded and went back to picking up trash.

That night, at midnight, Kakashi woke up from his sleep when he felt something onto his lap. "Chihiro?"Kakashi asked the figure on his lap.

"Kakashi, I'm scared."

"Of what? The dark?" He asked, recalling that this wasn't a problem the previous night.

"No, I'm scared of dying."

"Well, everyone is going to die someday…" Kakashi said but stopped when he realized that it didn't help the situation at all. Chihiro had begun to cry.

"I don't want to die Kakashi; I don't want to go into nothingness."

"You know Chihiro, when you die you don't go into nothingness, you go to heaven."

"What's heaven?"

"Well, heaven is where good people go when they die. It's a very good and happy place you go to and you have…lots of fun there…" Kakashi tried to explain, and had to admit his explanation was rather lame.

"I'm still scared…Kakashi can you sleep with me tonight?"

"Eh?"

"Just for tonight, please?"

Kakashi sighed, "Alright but just this once." Chihiro smiled and the two of them left the couch and went to Kakashi's bedroom. "Okay, you sleep on that side of the bed and I'll sleep on that side of the bed okay?"

"Kay," Chihiro said sliding under the covers. Kakashi got in too and turned his back on Chihiro.

"Kakashi, will everyone else be there?"

"Where?"

"In heaven, will Tsunade and Naruto and Sakura and Sasuke be there too?"

"Yeah, I'm sure they'll be there too," Kakashi said closing his eyes.

"Will you be there too?"

"Do you want me to be there?"

"Yes."

"Then one day, I'll go there too."
