BOO! 2 Chapters in 1 day? What is this nonsense? Seriously though, my bad for forgetting about this for so long, hopefully this starts to make up for it. Not really much left to do, so I guess I'll ask: any character in particular you want to play a bigger role. I've already got a basic idea planned out, but I can easily fit in some extra characters, pls no OC's tho, they scare me. And with that, enjoy the chapter!

An awkward silence filled the room as Silva stared at the 3rd Hokage, expressionless, while Naruto began picking his nose, then asked "Hey Gramps! Can we go already? I'm hungry." "Ahaha '' Hiruzen chuckled quietly, "Alright, yes off you go you 2, Bird. if you would do the honours'' the same bird masked ANBU appeared in front of the 2 boys, and placing a hand on both their shoulders vanished with the boys, with the Body Flicker technique, leaving Hiruzen alone in the room, who collapsed back into his chair and took a long, deep sigh.

On the streets of Konoha, 2 boys appeared out of thin air, 1 tripping and falling over and 1 gracefully landing, right outside a ramen stand. "Owwwww, that bird guy is gonna get it, what colour should I paint his mask Silva? Silva?". Naruto looked around trying to find Silva, who had vanished without a trace. "Oh." A hint of sadness emerged on Naruto's face, before his cheerful grin returned, and he marched directly into the ramen stand, and sat down.

Silva, who watched this from an alleyway, glanced at the ramen stand before turning away and heading down the alleyway and exiting onto a busy road filled with people. Raising his hood, Silva walked with his head down, walking through the busy streets of the Leaf and eventually reaching his home, pulling his hand out of his pocket with his key in tow, he inserted it into the lock and opened the door, a cold air gushing out. Silently, Silva stepped in, and removed his shoes, and locked the door behind him. After this, he removed his hoodie, revealing a plain black shirt underneath it. He then changed into more comfortable clothing, both a dark grey in colour, before laying down, and blowing out the candles in his room, and fell asleep with his blindfold still covering his eyes and nose.

He awoke to find himself in a strange place, it seemed like a sewer. Silva sensed the area around him, and felt a presence far away, but within walking distance so, finding nothing else of note in this room, he walked toward the presence. After walking for about 20 minutes, he ran into a room, which he entered and within was a table with a large scroll covered in symbols far beyond Silva's comprehension, which he studied for 10 minutes, trying to make sense of it, before deciding to move on and head toward the presence. On his way to the presence, he encountered 10 identical rooms, each with scrolls getting larger and larger, until the final one with a scroll more than triple his size lying in the middle of the room. After that room, he finally felt close enough to feel the presence and after turning a corner, he entered an incredibly vast room, seemingly stretching on forever. The only thing Silva felt in the room was the presence, which had tripled in strength, and as he approached it, it got stronger and stronger, and eventually Silva began to struggle even walking forwards, however he kept pushing until he reached what he believed was the source of the presence, a large gate, the same gold colour as the walls and floor that he had grown accustomed to after the first 6 hours. The gate seemed to stretch upwards endlessly, the only thing of note on the gate being the intricate designs surrounding it and a large central panel with a symbol placed upon it. Cautiously Silva began to approach the gate, reaching slowly out to it. As he creeped closer, the presence somehow became stronger, until Silva thought he would pass out from the sheer magnitude of the aura being released, and just millimetres away, his hand was suddenly repelled.

A voice began to fill Silva's mind, stating "YOU LACK THE KEY", getting louder and louder and began repeating the same thing

YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK THE KEY YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACKYOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACKYOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU LACK YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU

Silence.

Silva awoke in a cold sweat. Silence. Nothing but silence. Was it a dream? Or something else? Silva did not know, but looking at his clock, saw the time was 6:14, and decided to get up and do some early morning training. Getting dressed and leaving his house, the chilly blast of air shocked Silva's senses into overdrive, and he began to jog towards training ground 93, the place he had begun to spend most of his time in.

Some time later, Silva was meditating in the centre of the field, when he felt a presence nearby. standing up, Silva saw Bird walking towards him. Confused, he looked at Bird, who stared back for a few seconds, neither person being able to see the other person's eyes, yet somehow still making eye contact, before Bird began to speak. "Soo, about learning the Body Flicker, do you want to?" Bird asked Silva. Slowly, Silva nodded his head and listened.
