Hi! It's-a me! TonicShadow!
The second chapter of The Kingdom's Keybearer is here.
Get ready for the next instalment.
Chapter 2:
The Key of Secrets.
We find Naruto in the hospital bed wide awake as he stares at the key on the table…a key from his dream, given to him by and old man…it was impossible but, there is was as clear as day, he couldn't believe it…neither could Tsunade and Shizune once he told them how the key appeared in his hand.
He looks up and sees Tsunade pacing back and forth trying to figure out how the key got here…and why Naruto?
"I just don't understand?" Tsunade asked as she paces. "How can something that came from a dream turn up here? This is crazy."
"I know it sounds crazy Baa-chan, but I got the key from my dream and now it's here." Naruto replied before looking at the key on the table next to him. "How else did it get in my hand-…one that was tightly bandaged up?"
The Hokage stops and sighs as she rubs her forehead. "…I don't know…" She muttered before turning to Naruto. "What about the man who gave you that key? How do you know that he's who he says he is?"
"Well…he never said he was my Jiji." He answered as he looks at his hand before he looks at her with a serious expression. "But the way he described about my Kaa-san and saying about looking after his own family…I just know he has to be my Jiji."
Tsunade expression softens after hearing that before sighing. "Okay, fine." She replied. "But for now we got to know what that key opens, and right now it could be anything from an unknown door to a bank safe."
"Are you sure, Tsunade-sama?" Shizune asked getting their attention. "What if it doesn't open up anything in the village? It may end up opening something that's not in Konoha, maybe not even the whole country."
"It's in the village." Naruto said getting their attention. "The old man said to check the forest outside of Konoha and find a fairy that knows the way home, and then the mouse will always point the way."
"Now that's just crazy talking." A voice said from the window.
They all turn to see Jiraiya crouching on the windowsill looking in.
"Ero-sennin?" Naruto replied.
Jiraiya hops in and walks to the bed. "Find a fairy? And a mouse that points?" He asked before shaking his head. "I've heard of strange thing to find in my days, but being told those things and by someone from a dream? It's a new one for me." He then looks at the key. "And a magic key that came from a dream? That can't be real."
"Do you have any better answers?" Tsunade asked crossing her arms. "Because unless you know someone that somehow 'magically' make a key appeared inside a bandaged hand, please tell me."
"You've got me there." Jiraiya shrugged. "However, the only thing that did make sense was to check the forest outside the village." He answered. "The bad news is that we're surround by the forest. There no way of knowing which way to look."
"And Naruto only has today left before he's hunted down." Shizune said reminding them.
Tsunade narrows her eyes. "He's not even fully healed yet-…his leg is still broken." She replied.
Naruto looks at his broken leg before sighs sadly knowing he will be easy pickings. "Great, just great." He started to say getting everyone's attention. "It's my last day here, I have a broken leg, and no one can help me with this whole thing…I wish…I wish someone can help…"
RATTLE
Naruto blinked at the odd sound and turns to the key on the table… 'Am I…hearing things?' He thought.
RATTLE
His eyes widen as he saw the key move on its own. "The hell…?' He muttered before turning to the adults who were also looking at the key as well. "Did you see-…?!"
"We did brat…" Tsunade replied looking at the key with a surprise expression on hear face.
The key rattles more before it grew more intense and starts to glow golden making the adults take a step back.
"What's happening?" Shizune asked in worry.
The key then starts to flout into the air as the end tip pointing down as it slowly turns.
"…okay, maybe the magic key theory isn't that crazy." Jiraiya replied as he looks at the flouting key.
Just then the end tip of the key starts to shift and change. The crown shaped end splitting in three pieces before turning and joining together making a small tip in the before flouting down to the table and starts to…draw a spiral?
Everyone blinked at that and realise that the key became a pen before seeing the pen flout up again.
"It…it turned into a pen?" Shizune asked in confusion. "Why did it do that?"
Jiraiya narrows his eyes at in in thought for a reason why it changed into a pen…his eyes widen realising it. "That's it…" He muttered.
That got everyone attention and saw the sennin take out a blank scroll and roles it open, on the table.
"What are you doing?" Tusunade asked.
"Call it a hunch." He replied before turning to the floating pen.
It didn't move for a few moments before flouting to the scroll and starts to quickly draw something. As it draws everyone looks on trying to figure out what it is the pen was drawing…after a while they start to notice something.
"What's it doing?" Naruto asked.
"It looks like it's drawing a map of Konoha." Shizune answered as she watches the pen before turning to Tsunade. "But why?"
"I'm not sure. Jiraiya?"
"It wanted to show us where in the forest to go. It's telling us where to look." Jiraiya replied as he watches.
After a few more moments it finished drawing and stops, then the pen changes back into a key before flouting back on the table.
Tsunade grabs the now drawn scroll and views it. "…it looks like it's drawn the whole village…and also where each clan lives." She said as she looks at the map carefully.
"Why did it do that?" Shizune asked. "We already know where each clan lives-…why did the key drew what we already know?"
Tsunade still carefully looks over the map to see anything was amiss…before her eyes widen noticing the one detail. "Not everything." She replied.
"What?" Naruto asked. "What is it?"
"It's true that the key drew the places where each clan lives-…that we already know…except for one clan that we didn't know." She answered before placing the map back on the table before pointing to the section of forest in the West to see a symbol all too familiar to the adults.
"The Uzumaki Clan."
There was a moment of silence after hearing that.
"…Uzumaki…clan?" Naruto quietly asked with wide eyes. "I…I have a clan?"
Tsunade's eyes widen realising what she just said and looks to Naruto. "…uh…" She muttered.
"Are you telling me that I have a clan? And no one told me about it?!" Naruto asked as he started to get angry. "Why didn't anyone ever tell me?!"
"…it was to protect you." Jiraiya replied getting everyone attention.
"Jiraiya, what are you-…?!" Tsunade started to say but was interrupted.
"He deserves to know Hime, he's getting banished and I'm not gonna let the council deny his heritage!" He fired back.
Tsunade stares at him for a moment before she sighs in defeat. "…your right, he does need to know." She replied before turning to Naruto. "Alright brat, it's true, you are a part of a clan…just like your mother."
Naruto's eyes widen before saying. "What…?"
"Her name was Kushina, like you she had the same personality, hell she even had a verbal tic like you do." She carried on. "But that wasn't the only thing she had in common with you…"
"…what was it?"
"Because like you…she was a Jinchuriki of the nine tails, before you." She answered which made Naruto's eyes widen. "She was chosen to be a Jinchuriki because Kushina she born with a particularly powerful chakra. Strong even for one from any village. In fact, the first nine tails Jinchuriki was also my grandmother, Mito Uzumaki."
"So…I was the third person to hold the fox?" Naruto asked which got a nod from Tsunade. "But…what about my clan? Who are they?"
"The Uzumaki clan were distant relatives to the Senju clan, my distant cousins." She told him. "They were originating from the Land of Whirlpools where Uzushiogakure-…there village, was located. They were famous for their sealing techniques, and were long allies with Konoha since the First Hokage. It was the reason why there are a spiral on the back of the Konoha flack jacket."
"Then where are they?" Naruto asked. "Why aren't there any Uzumaki's here?"
"They used to be, years ago." She replied as she sits on the side of the bed. "Sadly, years before you were born their village was under attack and destroyed, they did call Konoha for help but they didn't get there in time."
Naruto expression becomes sad before he looks to his hands. "So…I really am the last." He said…before he blinked realising something. "You said that my Kaa-san was an Uzumaki?"
"She was, so was my grandmother when she married the First Hokage, my grandfather, why?" She answered him.
"What about her family? What happened to them?"
That got everyone attention. "Now that you mentioned it." Jiraiya said as he rubs his chin. "Since I knew Kushina, she never once mentioned about her folks. I just thought they died when she was young."
"Not once, Jiraiya-sama?" Shizune asked.
"No, even when she married Minato she never said anything about them." He answered. "…but she did keep saying to him before he became Hokage was that if he could dream it, he could it, crazy saying right?"
Naruto's eyes widen at that phrase. "That's what the old man in my dream said!" He said getting their attention. "When I talking to him he said he built his kingdom because he dreamed it, he even told me that any dream was possible, if you can dream it, you can it!"
"He said the exact same words?" Shizune asked in surprise. "But how?"
"…because that man in the brat's dreams is really related to Kushina, meaning she is his daughter." Tsunade answered realising how they are all connected. She then looks to the key. "…and he's given his grandson a way out of the council's hands." That got shocked looks from Jiraiya and Shizune.
"You're not actually going to believe any of this, are you Hime? I mean come on, it was a dream for kami's sake." Jiraiya asks with wide eyes.
"If it was just a dream, then tell me how a key-…the same key that Naruto dreamt about, got into his bandaged hand, floated in the air, turned into a pen and drew where to find the Uzumaki clans home that's outside of the village." She told him as she stands up. "Unless you can think of any other explanation for all this I'm all ears."
Jiraiya tries to think of a reason for any of this…before he sighs in defeat. "Your right, I don't." He answered before he points to her. "But I'm not gonna let him go into this crazy thing on his own."
"That makes the two of us." Tsunade replies before turning to Naruto who look on in surprise. "Get changed brat, we're gonna get the bottom of all this or I'm not the Fifth Hokage." She then turns to Shizune. "Shizune, go find Kakashi and tell him to put a team together-…tell him that it involves Naruto."
"At once Tsunade-sama." Shizune replied before quickly heading off out of the room.
"Wait…your all gonna help me?" Naruto asked.
"If this thing is legit it's the only way to make sure that the councils doesn't get here hands on you or the Kyuubi." Tsunade tells him. "I'm not gonna let that happen."
"What about the elders and Danzo, there not gonna like this." Jiraiya asks.
Tsunade smirks at him before saying. "You leave that to me…I have an idea."
(Moments Later)
We now find ourselves at the village gate, where we find Tsunade, Jiraiya and Shizune waiting with Naruto-…who was sitting on a bench with a leg cast fully clothed-…for Kakashi and a team he put together…that was halt an hour ago.
Tsunade sighs in frustration. "For once when I want Kakashi to be here on time, I want him to be ACTUALLY ON TIME!" She angrily called out.
"Tsunade-sama, please calm down!" Shizune said trying to calm her.
"You don't have to wait long." Jiraiya said finally seeing Kakashi and the team he selected…a big team.
Who Kakashi brought with him where Kiba, Shino, Lee, Neji, Tenten, Hinata, Ino, Choji, Shikamaru and Sakura, which got a surprised look from Naruto.
"Guys? What are you…?" He asked.
"You don't think we're gonna get a chance to do one last mission with you right?" Kiba asked with a smirk.
"Naruto-kun…" Hinata muttered out quietly which no one heared.
"We thought it was the least we can do. Why? Because you would have done the same for us too." Shino replied.
"When your sensei said that he needed help with you Naruto, we had to come." Choji replied as he snacks on his crisps.
"And considering what we were told about you being banished, we had to do something." Tenten replied.
"It is most un-youthful that they have done this!" Lee cried out. "And for this I will run arounf the village 20 times over! And if I cannot do that, I'll do it 40 time on my hands!"
"We get it Lee, we get it." Tenten sighed.
Sakura then walks up to Naruto with a sad look on her face. "…it's not fair, why did it have to be you baka, you didn't deserve this." She replied as tears start to form in her eyes.
"Hey, it's okay Sakura-chan." He replied trying to cheer her up.
"No it's not!" She fired back as tear start to flow down. "First Sasuke left the village and now your being banished for not bringing him back? That's not fair!"
A hand touches her shoulder and she turns to see Kakashi with a soft expression. "We all know it's not fair Sakura, and I wish was another way around it…but there isn't." He told her before he looks sadly at Naruto. "Naruto…I'm sorry."
Naruto blinks. "Huh?"
"I'm sorry I didn't train you properly like I've should have done before and less focus on just Sasuke. I should have been focusing all my team…not just one. Can you forgive me?"
"…of course I do sensei, I know it's not your fault." Naruto smiled softly before he frowns. "It is the councils though. I really wish I had the chance to kick their asses."
Kakashi eye smiles at him. "Oh I wouldn't worry about them-…you just leave that to us."
"Alright everyone, listen up!" Tsunade called getting everyone attention. "Naruto only has today before the council starts a man hut on him, and as you can see he won't be able to defend himself!" The Hokage told them.
"So what is the mission?" Shikamaru asked with a raised eyebrow.
"It's simple, with the help of Jiraiya your all going to help Naruto find a lost building home to the once Uzumaki clan." Tsunade answered getting surprised looks from them.
"Wait, Uzumaki clan?" Tenten asked with wide eyes. "Naruto actually had a clan?"
"It surprised me too when I was told about it." Naruto answered.
"The only information we have is that the building in is outside of the village in the surrounding forest." Tsunade replied before thumbing over her shoulder. "More specific the North West from this location."
"Is there any more information than that?" Kakashi asked.
"Nome that we know yet, however Jiraiya will tell you the rest later." She replied. "While you're doing that I'm going to buy you lot some time before they decide to get suspicious." She then looks to the whole team with a serious. "I'm declaring this mission as an A-Rank, just make sure Naruto is safe at all times. Is that understood?" She asked getting nods from everyone. "Then I wish you all luck." She then walks to Naruto-…who was getting up from the bench.
"So…this is goodbye then…" Naruto softly asked.
Tsunade expression softens before she kneels down and gives him a big hug as tears form in her eyes. "You take care of yourself, you hear me brat?" He said.
Naruto hugs her back with a sad smile. "I will…Hokage-sama…" He softly replied before letting go.
Tsunade smiles softly as tears flow down her cheeks. "I guess that's the only time I'll ever gonna hear that…" She then stands up and wipes her tear away.
"We better get going." Jiraiya said as he starts to head out with everyone soon following, except for Naruto but was helped by Sakura and they quickly caught up.
Tsunade and Shizune both look on as they watch them head to the forest before they disappeared from there site.
"…good luck, Naruto." Tsunade quietly said.
-: Forest Outside of Konoha :-
After a few minutes of tree jumping, they all came to a stop and the ground.
"Alright, before we go any further everyone has got to understand that what I'm about to tell you is the truth." Jiraiya said.
"What is it?" Shikamaru asked.
"The reason why we're looking for the building is because last night, Naruto received a key." He answered. "Not only that but the key actually came from his dreams."
That got him looks from everyone except Naruto. "Wait, seriously? For real?" Kiba asked before turning to Naruto as well as everyone else.
Instead of answering Naruto pulls out the said key showing it to everyone confirming it.
"I don't get it, how did a key from a dream become real?" Tenten asked not sure what to think.
"Because in my dream the person that gave me it might have been my Jiji." Naruto answered getting shocked look from them.
Kakashi narrows his eyes as he turns to Jiraiya. "Is this true?" He asked.
"It's true." He answered while shrugging. "I didn't believe it at first, but then the key started to flout and turn into a pen." He takes out the scroll of the map and opens it. "It then drew the map of Konoha and where each clan was living, including this one." He finishes pointing to the symbol of the Uzumaki. "That's where we need to look."
"How do even know it's even there? Everyone in the village has gone though that area hundreds of times." Tenten asked.
"She is right, the area is large and we do not know that area." Shino added.
"That's easy." Jiraiya replied as he puts the scroll away. "Naruto, tell them what you told me."
Naruto nods before saying. "The old man that gave me the key in my dream said that as soon as I was out of the hospital to head to the forest. Then he said to find a fairy that would point the way home."
Everyone blinked at that as they gave him looks.
"A fairy? Seriously?" Shikamaru asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Hey, don't give me that look!" Naruto yelled out. "I'm just telling you what he told me!"
"Um, m-maybe the dream was te-telling you to find s-something that represents a f-fairy." Hinata said defending him.
"You mean like a type of flower or bug?" Choji asked.
"If it's a flower, I've never heard of it-…I should know, my family runs a flower shop." Ino answered.
"And I am certain that there is no type of beetle with fairy in the name." Shino added.
"Maybe it's a certain place?" Sakura asked.
Kakashi shakes his head. "I've been to a lot of places-…put none that I know being called fairy." He answered.
"Besides, the location is in the forest surrounding Konoha, not all of Fire Country." Shikamaru added. "
"Then how are gonna find it?" Choji asked.
"Something that stands out more in the forest that anything else does." Jiraiya answered. "If you do see if you can find any markings of a fairy."
Ino then notices something out of the side of her eyes and turns to look…but see nothing. She raises her eyebrow. 'Huh, I thought I saw something…' She thought to herself
…then a saw a small ball of light in the distance flying around the trees which made Ino's eyes widen in surprise.
She blinks a few times before rubbing her eyes thinking that she was seeing things, she looks again…to find that she was seeing it. "…um, Shino? Do fire flies always flay around in big groups?" She asked.
"No, they do not. Why do you ask?" Shino asked.
"Because I think I've found something." She answered pointing to the ball of light flying around in the distance getting everyone to see it.
"What the hells that?" Kiba asked narrowing his eyes to see what it is.
It was then that the ball of light stopped for a few second…before it flew straight towards them. It then slowed down as it neared them before it gently flouts in front of Naruto. Upon closer inspection, he could see that it wasn't merely some ball of light, nor was it a lightning bug. The silhouette showed a curvy, but very tiny figure. She was hand sized, if a little smaller. Her skin had a fair complexion. Her blue eyes looked around in curiosity. Her blond hair was up in a bun, and her ears were very pointy. On her tiny body, a green strapless dress with a miniskirt, green shoes with white puffs on the toes and on her back, a pair of clear insect-like wings which glistened in the overhead moonlight. The wings, which kept fluttering, allowed her to hover…a fairy.
"Are…are you guys actually seeing this?" Tenten asked with wide eyes like everyone else.
"…it…it's real?" Ino muttered.
Naruto blinks a few times. "Kawaii…" He quietly said.
The fairy smiles at him before she flies around him a few times before shooting off into the forest in front of them leaving a dust trail.
"…you all saw that right? I wasn't going crazy or anything, right?" Kiba asked still looking where the fairy went.
"T-That was a r-real f-fairy, wasn't it?" Hinata asked with wide eyes.
"…this has now become troublesome." Shikamaru sighed.
"Come on, we've got to follow it!" Jiraiya called out before he jumps to the trees after it, which soon everyone follows.
After ten minutes of tree jumping, they finally followed the fairy to a rundown old building, but what drew Naruto's and the others attention was the swirl symbol that was on top of the building's entrance. The same symbol that was on the back of his orange jacket.
"…looks like that first clue was right brat…the fairy did take you home." Jiraiya told Naruto as he looks at the site in front of them.
The fairy then makes a few bell sounds getting their attention and point to the building as if it was telling them to go inside.
"What is she trying to say, sensei?" Sakura asked her teacher.
"I think she's telling us to go inside." Kakashi said understanding what the fairy was doing.
The fairy then nods before she flew to Naruto before giving him a kiss on the cheek which made him blush before she flew off to the night sky to who knows where and disappears.
"…well I can't say I don't believe in fairies now." Neji said after a pause moment before everyone went to the building and walked inside. When they did they took notice the condition of the house, and how time took its time on the place.
"Okay, so we've found the house…now what?" Kiba asked.
"We look around and find something out of the ordinary." Kakashi replied as he starts to look around the place which soon everyone else also did.
"What are we finding exactly?" Lee asked while turning his head around to look.
"Something that got to do with a mouse pointing at something." Jiraiya answered as he rubs his hand on the wall to find any hidden seals. "That's the next clue."
With that everyone started to split up and search the house for any clues. Ino went to what she thought was the kitchen with Shino, Lee was looking behind a worn out sofas, Kiba was checking the Livingroom door, Kakashi was checking the shelfing unit in the hallway, Jiraiya the walls of the house, Hinata the once bathroom used to be, Tenten the overflow of plants basement with Choji, Neji went into a room with a large collection and masks…don't ask, and Naruto, Sakura and Shikamaru when to check the study.
When Shikamaru opened to door to the study they were surprised how big it was. There were old ripped drawings of seal designs scattered all over the floor, an old desk that was weathered down and falling apart, and a large bookcase on the far side of the wall.
"Huh, this is the first time I've seen a study this big." Sakura said as they walking into the room. "It's almost the same size as the Hokage's office."
"It must have been used as the clans meeting place." Shikamaru said as he picked up a ripped seal design. "They must have been discussing seal designs."
Ino and Shino then walked in. "You've found anything?" Ino asked.
"Not yet, all we've found are just old seal designs." Sakura replied as Shikamaru dropped the said paper. "What about you?"
"Not a single one." She sighed as everyone else also started to come in.
"Same here, all I've found was webs and dust." Kiba said before sneezing and rubs his nose. "And I hate dust."
"There aren't any hidden seals anywhere in this whole complex, if there where they must have faded away over time." Jiraiya replied while crossing his arms.
"I even had to check with my Sharrigan for anything, but found nothing." Kakashi added.
"Well that fairy leads us here for a reason, right?" Tenten asked.
"If there was I'm not seeing it." Neji replied.
Shikamaru sighs and rubs the back of his neck before taking a look around the study. "Considering the state the whole building is in I'm surprised it's lasted this long." He muttered taking note of the condition of the place, from the broken floorboards, the cracked wall, the dusty desk the bookcase…
…bookcase.
Shikamaru blinks noticing that the bookcase itself looked to be in good condition compared to the rest of the room…in fact it look in very good condition. He narrows his eyes at the bookcase and walks up to it to take a closer look. 'Why is it that everyone thing in the house is wrecked but not this?' He thought checking it over also noticing that the books are also in good condition as well…his eyes widen realising something about the book.
"…Naruto, what was the exact words the guy from your dream said to you?" He asked getting both Naruto's and Sakura's attention.
"He said that 'the Mouse will always point the way'." Naruto replied. "That was all he said before he vanished."
"…what if he was talking about a name instead of an object?" That got everyone's attention and all look at him with puzzled looks.
"W-What do y-you m-mean, Shikamaru-san?" Hinata asked.
He points to the bookcase as he turns to them. "This bookcase, do you anything wired about it?" He asked.
"What, that it's full of books?" Kiba replied.
"I think me means that when everything in the building is either broken or worn out from old age, that bookcase is the only one that's not." Shino answered.
"He's right, this whole place is either falling apart of old age or wash away from years of weather." Jirayia said also seeing it as he walks up to Shikamaru. "But this bookcase hasn't."
"Not only that, but each book has a letter on each bind, but not in the right order." Shikamaru added.
"What does that mean?" Sakura asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Take another look and say the letters on the bind." Shikamaru replied which they all did.
As they look Ino randomly starts to say each letter on each bind. "…I…C…K…Y…M…O…U…S…E…" She said reading the letters on the binds before her eyes widen as she sees it. "Wait, those last five letter!"
"Mouse…so that's what the clue meant." Kakashi answered also seeing it before taking a closer look at the bookcase. "It's the bookcase itself."
"Yosh! Well done Shikamaru-san!" Lee called out giving a thumbs up to him. "You've solved it!"
"Troublesome." Shikamaru sighed.
"Okay so we've found the mouse…" Kiba started to say. "So what's next? I mean is there a secret button or seal to show something?"
"I'm afraid not." Jiraiya answered checking the bookcase over. "There isn't any that would indicate a switch or seal, just wood books and wood."
"There's got to be something there though." Naruto said as he walked up to the bookcase with the help of Sakura.
Jiraiya then notices that one of the books was different from the rest and leans in to look. It was a blue book with gold writing that said 'Uzumaki History' and gold emblem of a crown and a keyhole on the bind. Jiraita smirks before turning to Narto gesturing to the book.
"Brat, I think I've found where that key is supposed to go." He told him.
Looking at the said book and seeing the keyhole emblem, Naruto takes out the key from his pocket…it then started to glow surprising everyone before the emblem also started to glow before and saw that the emblem actually changed into a proper keyhole.
…after a while Naruto silently asked for Sakura to let him go and then limps his way to the bookcase. He stops at the keyhole before looking at the key…then he slowly and hesitantly puts the key in-…which fits. He pauses before turning to the others seeing there cautious and some eager looks before turning back to the bookcase. Taking a deep breath his then slowly turns the key until…
CL-CLICK
…there was a moment of silence…
Just then the bookcase starts to shake surprising everyone as they take a few steps back-…key included. As it shakes a large array of seals appear on the bookcase glowing before the seals start to moves about and move towards the back of the bookcase…the bookcase then starts to move backwards into the wall before it stops and starts to sink into the ground. While it was sinking they took notice that there was a hidden passage behind the bookcase. When the bookcase disappeared into the floor they notice that the hidden passage was leading down with stairs and touches were lit up by themselves.
"Whoa…how youthful…" Lee said breaking the silence.
"Looks like the Uzumaki clan weren't only just seal masters as we thought." Jiraiya replied. "This must have been here for years, and nobody in Konoha ever knew about it."
"…soooo…who wants to go first?" Kiba asked hesitant about the secret staircase which got him looks that said 'really?'.
Naruto looks back down the stairs before gains a serious expression. "I'll go first, I've come this far and I'm not backing out now." He said and starts to slowly limb down the stairs…Sakura quickly joins him as she helps him down the stairs.
Everyone else all share a look before they follow the pair down the stairs to find the hidden secrets underground.
