"Are we there yet?" Saya asked again.
"Yes." Keahi said.
"Really?"
"No."
They had been walking for a couple of hours and weren't even close to being there.
"Where are we going again?" Saya asked.
"To the Village Hidden in the Mist. We have to protect some dude there.(Not that weird bridge building guy) Apparently he's important and we have to protect him. He has to deliver something to another village." Keahi explained.
"Sounds boring." Saya said.
"EVERYTHING seems boring to you."
Transition Time!
"Where's she heading?"
"The Village Hidden in the Mist."
"We'll intersect her there?"
"We'll wait for her to pick up the old man."
"Got it."
Transition Time!
It was the next day and Keahi and Saya had reached the village gates. There was a middle aged man there. He walked up to them.
"Are you my guards?" He asked.
"Are you Azo?" Keahi said.
He nodded. "You seem too weak to guard me."
"We are skilled ninja. The Leaf Village would not send weak ninja." Keahi told him.
He looked them over. "You're not one of 'them', are you?"
"'Them'? You mean the people who are after you?"
"No. 'Them'." He used air quotes.
Keahi understood. The 'them' he was referring to were people from another universe(ours) that came here 5 years ago. For some reason people here were afraid of them.
"Why? You don't like 'them'?"
He shook his head. "No. They're odd. They talk about strange things like 'cell phones' and 'Ipods'."
"That's no reason to dislike them." She frowned.
"I just have a hard time adjusting to their strange ways." He said. "So are you one of 'them'?"
"No." Keahi lied. She WAS one of them. Saya knew it too, but she also knew not to tell people. "Do you think that 'they' can't become great ninja?"
"No. What do 'they' know? 'They' act all high and mighty. 'They' don't know the first thing about being a ninja!" He said.
Keahi couldn't believe him! She was a great ninja! He had no idea what he was talking about!
"Well, we better get going." She said and they started walking to the Village Hidden in the Sand. (That's the only other village I know)
Now you know a little bit more about who 'they' are.
