Before you start reading I would like to note something. I have never watched the Boruto series(It never grabbed my interest). I know about the ghost storyline and something about Boruto's eye but that's about it. There's one element I'm borrowing from the show and that is in this chapter. So if something doesn't link up to the show that's your reason why. Think of it as an AU (for now). So enough pissing off Boruto fans, it's time to get to the story!

All that she could see was darkness, surrounded by what felt like the void. She noticed that she was walking on what appeared to be water. The still water was emitting a faint light which allowed her to see. She walked for what it felt like hours, trying to find anyone or anything. Where is she? How did she get here? What was happening? These were the questions she was asking herself. Giving up she fell to her knees, she just wanted this to be over.

"Sarada…?"

That voice, that voice she missed so much. One she hasn't heard in forever. She could hear footsteps coming from her right, the ripples in the water became more apparent as the voice came closer. From out of the darkness came out a young boy with long blond hair. He was beaten and bruised with multiple kunai's stabs in his body. He also had what appeared to be black metal rods in his back. Boruto was wobbling towards her.

"Boruto?! BORUTO!"

Sarada stood up and ran towards him, extending her arm trying to reach him. Sarada had tears in her eyes, she's so close, she could save him. Have him at her side again. Before she reached him, his body gave out, and he drops down into the water. Sarada tried to grab him, but she was too late, Boruto began to sink. She pressed her hand into the water trying to get through but the water didn't move, only forming small ripples.

Frustrated, she punched the water hoping it eventually breaks. Nothing happened. She launched her other fist hitting the water, having no effect. Sarada continued to punch the water trying to get to him, to save him. She momentarily stops as she felt something break in her left hand, but then she continued ignoring the pain.

Sarada stops and watches as Boruto sinks to the bottom then disappears into the light. Defeated she let the tears fall, she gave a quick glance at her hands, they were bruised and bloody, but she didn't care. She failed him.

Sarada looked up, she noticed that the void was moving. It was moving like a fog getting closer and closer. Panicking she stood and ran in the other direction but was frozen in place when she noticed the fog was right behind. Surrounded, Sarada tried to activate her Sharingan, a sharp pain entered her eyes, stopping her. Black flames formed burning her skin just by its presence. Sarada heard laughter coming from the flames, she spotted red eyes staring at her, looking at her like prey.

The eyes grew then a mouth formed, the face looked melted similarly to demons. From the flames a giant hand construct grabbed her. Surprisingly she wasn't feeling the flames nor can feel the heat anymore. Even with broken hands, she tried to break free only to fail. She looked back at the construct and was horrified. The construct formed the rest of its form revealing Sarada's own face. The construct was made from the black fire, had Sarada's head but her face was melted, it's eye and mouth was glowing red.

Sarada had tears in her eyes unable to do anything as she waited for something to happen as the construct stared at her. The construct propelled forward taking a biting Sarada's entire upper frame causing blood to spill everywhere.

Sarada woke up, she looked at her surroundings, she quickly realized that she was in her room. Sarada laid back on her bed and took a deep breath. Another nightmare. Off the bed, she headed for the bathroom getting ready for the day. When she opened the door she saw a white snake entering through her window. Scared Sarada yelled tripping upon herself trying to get some distance.

Sasuke burst through the door after hearing his daughter cry. He lowered his guard once he noticed what happened. Sarada stood beside her father, trying to avoid contact with the snake. It's not that she's afraid of the snake it was more of being creeped out at the moment. The snake raised its body reaching Sarada's height.

"Greetings Sasuke-sama, Sarada-san." The snake was female and had a calm voice.

"Shiro, explain your intentions with my daughter."

"I'm here to relay a message for Sarada-san."

"From whom?"

"Mitsuki-san"

"Mizuki!?" Sarada was surprised. She hasn't talked to Mitsuki since the Attack. "Why didn't he come to see me in person?"

"He's… busy at the moment."

"What does he want?"

"He simply wants to speak with you."

"Oh" Sarada never really had any contact with anyone. It was just her and her parents. Shiro lowered herself then headed back to the window. "Wait where do we meet?"

"Near the Hidden Leaf Academy. I'll inform Mitsuki." Shiro left, leaving through the hole she made.

"Strange boy. What is he doing?" Sasuke faced Sarada. She seemed lost in her thoughts. "Are you going?"

"Of course I am. He's my friend."

"Then you should get ready. Can't go out like that." Sarada looked in the mirror, she was a complete mess. Sarada was horrified never has she seen herself in such a state. Sasuke chuckled seeing her reaction as he left her room. Sasuke returned to the table and continued eating his cereal. Sakura was in the kitchen making breakfast for herself. While the food was cooking she went over to his side.

"Another nightmare?"

"Yes, you can tell by looking at her. But that's not why she yelled."

"Then what is it?"

"Mitsuki" Sakura laughed. She was glad to hear about Mitsuki again. Sarada needed a friend at her side and so did Mitsuki.

"Where is he? I want to see how he's doing," she questioned.

"Hiding, can't blame him. With all these rumors ruining around him and his father. Him losing control." Sakura flashed back to when he woke up from the first time when he'd returned. She was there when he found out about Boruto. Saw him transform. Watch his rampage across the village. It took her and Kakashi to pin him down. She remembers as he cried in her lap after he calmed down. Sakura sighed.

"Even with all that happened to him, people treat him like a monster. They harassed him even when we told them he was okay."

"People shouldn't be but I understand why they do it. The whole village on edge after the attack then Mitsuki goes on a rampage, just like what happened to other kids."

"But he's not like the others. They were used to send a message. Not him. Besides, he's been here for years." Sakura argued.

"But we don't know what he was doing before he came to the village. All we know is that he's Orochimaru's son. And that's already a red flag for some."

"Well, we know that but not the others." Sakura went face to face with her husband. "If the Daimyo or his inner circle found out-"

"Naruto isn't going to allow anything to happen to that boy. Neither will I."

"I know, that's what worries me." A door opens interrupting Sakura.

Sarada came out of her room wearing her regular attire. She hasn't worn these clothes since her training with her father.

"I'll be going out."

"Aren't you going to have breakfast sweety?" Sarada looked at her mother, black smoke was coming out of the stove while Sakura was waiting for an answer.

"I'll pass. Can't keep Mitsuki waiting."

"Fine, I won't keep you waiting. Send him my regards, will ya."

Sakura gave her daughter a kiss on the cheek. Sarada did the same to Sasuke then quickly left going through the front door. Sasuke continued eating his cereal before he realized Sakura was in front of him showing her left cheek as if asking for affection, to complete the triangle. Sasuke pokes her on the forehead pushing her away. Sakura puffed her cheeks acting like a child after being rejected. Sasuke replied by pointing behind her, showing, now on fire, on the stove. Sakura panicked trying to calm down the fire all the while Sasuke continued with his cereal.

After jumping from rooftop to rooftop she finally made it to the school. Many memories flooded her mind. It dawns on her just how far she's come. The friends she made, the improvement of her skills. Happier times. Sarada searched the area trying to locate Mitsuki and came up with nothing. Not a surprise to her. She heard about what happened to Mitsuki. She thought she'd lose him too. Things turned out okay in the end but now people call him a monster, a member of the Academy. She knows this was false, Mitsuki would never work with those bastards.

Sarada activated her Sharingan with all three tomoe. With her eyes, she located a chakra signature on top of the building near the school. She climbs up the building reaching the top in seconds. Mitsuki was there observing the students on the training grounds. Deactivating her Sharingan she headed towards him.

"Have I ever told you why I came here, to Konohagakure?" Sarada stops in her tracks. Mitsuki never faces her, like he was refusing to do so. "It was because of him. I wanted to know… how to live. Being with Boruto was my way of learning. Thanks to him I learned so much. During that time we didn't just become friends, we were brothers." Sarada was baffled, she never heard Mitsuki share his feelings with anyone. "Then he died. Protecting you." Shocked Sarada only stood there as tears began to form.

"I- I- I-… I tried to save him. I tried my best."

"Sarada, I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at myself."

"W- what!?"

"He promised to protect you. I should have promised to protect him. If I had, he'd still be here." Mitsuki said, finally facing Sarada.

"Mitsuki no, you… look what happened is no one's fault. Things would have been worse if Boruto hadn't acted. He died so we can live. So we can stop the Academy from hurting anyone."

"Us? I know the village is a political nightmare right now but do you really think we can take on the Academy?"

"Boruto would have."

"Hehe, your right, he would have. Do you know what he'll say to us right now if he was here?"

"No, what would he say?"

"Wait no I was asking you." Sarada laughed. She missed these awkward conversations with Mitsuki.

"You didn't change a bit, did you?" Sarada asks him, still laughing.

"To be honest I think we all did." At that moment Sarada's stomach growled. "Seems like someone hungry"

"I was in a hurry."

"Come on I'll get you something to eat," Sarada nodded in agreement. They left making their way down to the ground. Back on top, a girl with long purple hair emerged from the shadow. She leaned over the guard railing observing the two.

Sarada and Mitsuki entered a cafe filled with people. The place quiet once they notice who entered as both sat at a nearby table. People began staring at them as if they were freaks. Sarada ignored them trying not to cause a commotion.

"I'll get something for us," Mitsuki told Sarada.

"Okay, and thank you."

"No problem."

Mitsuki went and waited in line while others began to make distance away from him. Mitsuki didn't seem bothered by this like he's used to this. However, this bothered Sarada. People judging her friend, it didn't sit well. A young man went over to her and whispered something to her.

"Hey you, why are you with that kid? He's one of those monsters-" Sarada shifted her gaze at the man. The reflection on her glasses disappeared revealing her blood-red eyes. With the message well-received, the Man stepped away leaving her alone. Mitsuki arrived with a slice of cheesecake on hand. After seeing him arrive, Sarada's eyes returned to normal.

"I know you like cheesecake, so I got you some." Mitsuki handed her the cake. Sarada smiled and took the cake.

"Thank you!" People keep staring at Mitsuki murmuring within themselves. Sarada couldn't enjoy the gift she was given with all these people staring at them. Mitsuki meanwhile didn't pay attention to them, appearing to be lost in his thoughts.

"How do you do it? All of these people, judging you." Sarada questioned him.

"It's not as bad you think. Not everyone is trying to run me out of the village." Sarada sighed. She wished this was true.

"Please don't lie to me." Mitsuki frowned. Sarada won't buy it. "I remember you transforming during the ambush. Tell me, how did this happen? What's that transformation of yours?" Mitsuki sighed.

"I don't know. It has just been something I could do since the days with my father. I thought I had it under control but now… I'm afraid of what can happen. Every time I tap into that power I feel myself lose… the thing that makes me human."

"It's okay Mitsuki. I'll stand by your side so you have nothing to worry about. Besides, we've got the best people here in the village. If they could help me, they could help you."

"Maybe. The Sharingan is a completely different case from mine."

"H- how did you know about my eyes?"

"You can hear a lot of things when hiding in the shadows. We've been talking about me but what about you?" Sarada took a bite of the cake looking to refuse to answer at first but eventually caved in. She trusts him.

"I knew how powerful the Sharingan can be but I never knew how important it is. Or my family's history. People feared the Uchiha, of what they're capable of. Produced some of the most powerful Shinobi ever known. Do you know what they had in common?"

"The Mangekyo Sharingan"

"Yes. Only achieved by those who experienced the loss of a loved one." Sarada took a glimpse out the window, all those people walking around like they have no problems to worry about. Why couldn't she be one of them? Mitsuki wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know how. She focused back on him continuing what she was saying. "I've been training with Papa, learning about my new abilities. How to adapt to them. But sometimes it's too much for me to handle."

"It's okay. I'll stand by your side so you have nothing to worry about." Sarada chuckled. He got her with her own words. She ate the rest of the cake then both continued to talk for a while as time passed. Suddenly a small snake appeared over Mitsuki's shoulder startling Sarada. The snake whispered something to him so that Sarada won't hear.

"Really? So soon?" Mitsuki sighed. "I'm sorry Sarada but I must take my leave."

"Why? Is something wrong?"

"No, nothing wrong. Just have a meeting with… an old friend."

"Oh, okay." Before he left Mitsuki stopped beside where Sarada was sitting.

"Hey, I heard Kohona-sensei has been approved to be back on the field. When we can we'll pay him a visit." Sarada gave Mitsuki a smile. "Yeah!" she responded. With that Mitsuki left the cafe. People seem to let out a sigh of relief bothering Sarada. After a while, she left as well.

Sarada was walking in the crowded streets, busy with her thoughts. She wondered how the rest of her friends were doing. How long has it been since she contacted them? She decided on visiting them to see how they were doing.

From the corner of her eye, she saw something dash by at high speeds, breaking her focus. Stopping, she looked around trying to find what that was. Unlike other ninjas that were passing this one felt different like it was following on her. She continued to look, trying to pinpoint the follower. Sarada located the suspect at a nearby alleyway, staring at her.

From her point of view, she couldn't see a face but could tell it was a female. She walked over the alleyway ready to confront her. Sarada slowed down getting nearer to her. "She looks familiar," she thought to herself. Sarada stops once she realizes who she was.

"Sumire?!"

She wasn't seen since the attack. Sarada panicked, Sumire was close to Boruto, really close. She was afraid that Sumire would do something to her, like turning her into a mindless monster similar to her days as the Ghost. Or worse use the bomb she had at her disposal.

"What's wrong? It's like you saw a ghost." Sumire smirked.

Sarada gave no response. She knew she was trying to get on her head. Trying to get in her skin, so she'll have an excuse to attack. Sumire's complexion changed, she gave a cold expression, showing no emotion.

"Tell me, is it true? That he died, protecting you?"

"Sumire please don't anything we might regret-"

"TELL ME! What happened on that day?" Sumire began to tear up, trying to reveal no emotion.

Seeing her break Sarada complied.

"On the day of the attack, we were sent out to help with the evacuation. There we were ambushed by masked men, the Academy themselves. They pinned us to a corner even with Kohona-sensei at our side. People try to help us but they were killed instantly. Then I remember being hit by a blinding light and the next thing I knew we're on a ship in the middle of the sea. There we were surrounded, then… w- we fought…"

Sarada was crying. She remembers her team fighting for their lives that day. Kohonamaru and his summon, fighting dozens of minions, Mitsuki transforming then attacking anything on sight, and Boruto and Sarada fighting side by side. Then she remembered him.

"H-he showed up. Quickly took care of Mitsuki, incapacitate Kohonamaru then took down Boruto. I was the last one standing. H- he tortured me, beat me down till I couldn't get up."

At that point, it was all blur. She only remembers it was an elderly man, but he was extremely agile. She could hear him enjoying his fight with her.

"He prepared a final attack. For me." Black rods formed in his arms ready to strike. He threw them, aiming at her.

"But he took it instead," Sumire interjected. Sarada flashed back to that moment.

Blood was dripping down hitting the wood. Sarada looked up, horrified at the image before her. Boruto standing there with all the rods stabbed in his back. With blood covering his mouth he gave Sarada a smile. With the last of her strength, she was able to say one word.

"W-WHY?!"

"I-I promised… I'll protect you, didn't I? Boruto drops down to the floor taking deep breaths. Sarada dragged herself to Boruto trying to reach him. She grabbed his hand dragging him close to her.

"Cute" the man formed more black rods in between his figures ready to strike again.

"Headmaster, look out!" screamed a man jumping out of the boat. The old man looked over his side and immediately jumped out of the boat. Something crashes into the boat causing it to explode in pieces. Sarada landed in the water alongside Boruto. Sarada swam upwards but then noticed that Boruto wasn't. All she could do was watch as he sank to the bottom of the sea. Her childhood friend disappearing into the darkness below. Her eyes began to pulsate making her lose consciousness. An arm appeared and grabbed her, lifting her back to the surface. It was Kohonamaru, he placed her on a large chunk of the boat that remained, next to Mitsuki. Soon she was completely unconscious.

"Sumire, I'm sorry. I know you're angry but if you're looking for a fight you're not getting one. I'm not fighting a friend-"

"Oh, so now you call me a friend!" Sumire snaps startling Sarada. "The moment you discovered that I was the Ghost you abandoned me. Ignore me every time I try to make things right! You lied every time you said we were friends to make me feel better and hid behind a fake smile!"

Sarada knew this was partly true. She wanted to trust her but logic told her not to.

Sumire continues. "Everyone did! You all treated me like a monster! He was the only one who stood by me. Always there when I needed him. He was my only friend… and he's dead. Because of you."

Sarada felt her heartbreak. Is what she said true? Did Boruto die because of her?

"I- I- I-"

"Shut up! I don't want to listen to you. I'm tired of you all. I never want to see you again. So just stay out of my way." Sumire dash away leaving Sarada alone.

Sarada didn't do anything, she was there standing with tears running down, Sumire's words bouncing on her head. She wipes away the tears and exits the alleyway, soon disappearing into the crowd.

Naruto let out a loud yawn, finally waking up from his slumber. He noticed the house was empty which was weird for him, usually, someone was here. It took him a while but it finally dawned on him. Naruto groaned, facepalming in disappointment. "No, no, no," he said to himself over and over again. How could he fail his family, after they were excited to be together again? No, he refused to accept this. He stood still ready to activate Sage Mode.

"Look who decided to finally wake up." Naruto found himself in his subconscious facing his partner the Nine-Tail Fox, Kurama.

"Says the one who sleeps up to an entire week." Naruto chuckled while Kurama groaned. "What do you need Kurama?"

"Just checking on you. We haven't really talked to each other since your son died." Naruto sighed, Kurama never knew subtlety. Kurama saw his saddened expression. "Was it something I said?" Naruto sat next to him, remaining silent.

"No, is just… that very fact." Naruto laid back on Kurama, usually, he'd find this annoying but this time he'll allow it.

"I wish I could do something for you, kid. But you'll pull through, you always have."

"Maybe Kurama maybe. We can't change what happened." both laid there doing nothing. Suddenly footsteps could be from the shadows.

"You can't change what happened but you can prevent it from happening again. Or something like that." A giant creature appeared. It was a bipedal slug with stubby arms, feet, and six long tails.

"Saiken? What are you doing here?" Kurama questioned his brother.

"I'm here to talk with Naruto. I need a favor from him."

"Of course. What do you need?"

"Kirigakure are expanding their Military and are getting too close for comfort. Can you tell them to please back off?"

"They must be on edge due to the Academy."

"The Academy? Are they the ones humans keep talking about? It's the only thing I hear about these days."

"Uh-huh, another thing to add to the mess on my desk."

"Oh no, I didn't mean to make things worse for you."

"It's no trouble. I'll talk to them as soon as possible."

"What about your time with your daughter?" Kurama intervened. Naruto paused, he didn't know what to do. Saiken felt awkward, he'd forgotten about Naruto's son.

"I'm sorry about your son." Naruto gave him a small smile in response. For a moment there was silence. "Um, I know this is sudden but I had another concern. You see, I liked to gaze at the stars sometimes. I find them gorgeous, it makes me feel happy. But now they look different, feel different. Now… now they scare me."

"Afraid of stars? Figures." Kurama turned his head then laid back down. "Looks like you have a visitor," Kurama announced.

"Huh, who?"

"The Uchiha's daughter. She's just standing there."

"Now, how do you know that Kurama?"

"That girl is filled with negative emotion."

"Sarada… I'll go talk to her." Saiken nodded while Kurama simply grunted. "I'll talk with the Mizukage and I'll check out those stars for ya." Saiken laughed as Naruto returned to reality.

She was walking around with no destination in mind. She froze when she realized the house she was passing by. Sarada was standing in front of Uzumaki residence, her body shaking. The thought of facing Boruto's family frightened her. How would they react to her? Did they blame her for Boruto's death? The door opened and Naruto came out.

"If you keep staring people will think you're a creep." Sarada didn't respond. She never faced the Hokage after Boruto's death. "It's okay. Feel free to come inside."

Naruto held the door open waiting for her to enter. Sarada wanted to run away but that smile of the Hokage, made her feel safe. She entered the house with Naruto. Sarada spotted a nearby trophy case containing multiple items. There were many items but the one that caught her attention, a photo of the Uzumaki family together. Sarada's body to shake again. Naruto patted her on the back, breaking her trance.

"What are you looking at?"

"Ah, uh, just looking, hehe."

"So how are you holding up?"

"I-I'm fine. Still getting used to my eyes." Naruto knew about Sarada's condition. Never realized how close she was to Boruto. Naruto then noticed that she was sweating profusely.

"Hey, you okay? You look tired. Here let me get a drink." Naruto left while Sarada tried to clean off her sweat. She noticed another photo, this time it was one of Boruto showing off the Rasengan to Himawari. Soon Naruto was there watching the same photo with the glass of water in hand.

"Boruto used to brag about how he mastered the 'most difficult Jutsu in history'. I wanted someone to teach me but both Boruto and Kohonamaru-sensei said I'll be too dangerous with it. Dangerous, that's what they called me."

Naruto saw Sarada's sad expression, lost in her thoughts, he knew she was suffering on the inside. He thought about it, he knew he'd regret his decision. Naruto left to a nearby dresser and grabbed a balloon. Using the drink he filled half of the balloon, and he filled the rest. He sat on the couch and cleared out the table.

"Sarada come over here."

Sarada looked over at Naruto, sat next to him, and wondered what he was doing.

"The Rasengan is a spinning ball of Chakra formed and held in the palm of the user's hand. It's the highest form of shape transformation." Naruto extended his arm and formed a normal Rasengan.

Sarada was amazed, she never looked at the Rasengan up close even with her time with Boruto.

"The Rasengan requires extremely refined Chakra control. It took me years to perfect it. Anyway, learning to use the Rasengan is broken into three steps: rotation, power, containment. The first step is Rotation. The goal is to learn to rotate your Chakra in multiple directions at once. To help we use a water balloon to mark your progress." Naruto's Rasengan disappeared then handed her the balloon. "This step is complete once you're able to burst the balloon with your Chakra. Give it a try."

"Wait, you're actually teaching me? Why?"

"If no one is going to teach you then I will. Besides, I'm curious to see what you can do with it."

Sarada was shocked. Was he really going to teach her one of his signature techniques? Filled with determination Sarada focused her Chakra and tried to form it only with no success. She tried again, this time she only wanted to expel Chakra in one direction then continue from there. After a while, the water in the balloon finally moved in an upward direction. With great glee, Sarada pumped her fist in victory. Seeing her smile was satisfying for Naruto, maybe he won't regret this.

Hinata and Himawari enter the house interrupting Sarada's training. They noticed Himawari had wear and tear on her clothes. She gave Naruto a big smile, Naruto was overjoyed but Sarada began to panic again. Are they going to yell at her as Sumire did to her?

"Hi, Sarada-chan. Long time no see!" Himawari waved at her, calming her down.

"Oh, hello there Sarada, what are you doing here?" Hinata questioned.

"Um I uh, was passing by," Sarada answered. Naruto faced his daughter while the others talked.

"Himawari I'm sorry. I didn't mean to doze off like that."

"It's okay Papa. Mama and I needed this."

"Hey, Himawari, why don't you show him what you learned," Hinata said.

Himawari smirked getting into position. Naruto stood up marveling at her daughter. She took a familiar stance, readying herself. It took him a while but Naruto realized which stance this is but it was too late. Before he could react Himawari stuck him twice in his left leg and trice in his right dropping him to the floor. She hit him multiple times in the abdomen causing him to squeal.

"Wait! No! Stop! OW! Hinata do something!"

"Come on Naruto she's only having some fun." She responds.

"OW! Since when did you become so sadistic! AHH!"

"HEY! Tell that brat to piss off!" Kurama yelled at Naruto, feeling the effects of Himawari's assault.

"I think he had enough Himawari," Sarada said, trying to save the Hokage. Himawari stops, then crosses her arms. She gave Naruto an angered look while Naruto tried to recover.

"That's for leaving me and Boruto alone for all these years."

"I'm sorry. I promise not to leave any of you ever again."

"Good" Himawari kissed Naruto on the cheek, comforting him. Hinata felt happy seeing them together and getting along well. Hinata looked at Sarada and still had questions for her.

"What do you have there?" Said Hinata now focused on her.

"Oh, It's a water balloon. Naruto-sama was teaching me the Rasengan."

"Wait, you're teaching her but not me, your daughter!" Himawari frowned again and gave Naruto a death stare. Sarada now regretted saying something.

Naruto wimpers. "Now, I know what you're thinking. Should I hurt him? Now the answer may surprise you."

Himawari struck again, hitting at any opening she could see. Sarada was horrified at the sight, Hinata was proud on the other hand. Seeing her daughter improve so much in such a short time. All that could be heard in the Uzumaki's residence was the Hogake's whimpering as he was helpless against his daughter.

In the outskirts of the village, a young female was heading to the village. She had white skin and black hair reaching over her shoulder. Wearing basic Kunoichi gear and had a jacket on but the most noticeable feature was an iron mask covering only the upper half of her face. She was carrying a sword stashed in its scabbard over her shoulder. She was walking on an old dirt road at midnight, surprisingly this road was empty making it easier to sneak into the village. While staring at the village a tarantula appeared over her head.

"Hmph, too bright for my tastes." said the arachnid.

"You know what to do, scout everything in the village then return to me."

"Of course. What are you going to do in the meantime?"

"I'm going to meet my partner in person."

"Very well." multiple spiders crawled out of her clothes and jumped out using their webbing to swing across the village.

She watches as the spiders spread through the village without raising any alarm. She looked up at the sky, even though her eyes were covered and she could see the stars. Something was different, there were many more stars than usual. Even a Magellanic cloud could be seen, even though it couldn't be possible to see them with all the light the village was emitting. She let out a sigh.

"Ready to crawl out of your hole old man? Ah man, he's going to be a headache." She smiled continuing her path to the village.
