"The villagers…" Kagome pushed. There had to be somewhere in the worlds she had visited that was willing to take in everyone, to take the "unnatural" with the "natural", and treat them all the same. For one crazy moment Kagome was willing to sell her soul to appease her curiosity. She hadn't realized just how much this meant to her until she looked into Naruto's honest blue eyes and saw only the whispers of a lonely past, one that he had overcome. Naruto had been a victim that had recovered and in all her life Kagome had never seen anything as beautiful as the healed scars of his aura.
"Well they're fine, I mean they can do stupid things like suggest rotten fruit when they should be experts at telling the difference between, and sometimes they like to dump water out of the top window of an apartment without looking down to see who was walking by," Naruto informed her with a longsuffering roll of his bright blue eyes, but then he smiled and Kagome wished that Gaara would one day be able to smile like this boy, "they're idiots which is why it's my job to keep them safe."
