Chapter One
Tira stumbled through the forrest in a haze. Her eyes misted over with tears as she thought of everyone in her village. Snow fell, sticking to her cloak and making her feet make soft crunching sounds. All was silent around her. Far to her right, she heard the sound of people comming near where she was. She quickly climbed the closest tree and hid in the safty of the branches. A tall male was leading three youngsters through the clearing she'd just escaped from. As the man finished speaking to the youngsters, the dark haired boy broke away from the pack. He was sullen looking, and seemed to be a loner.
The taller man came near him and Tira got a good look at him. His face was mostly obscured by a mask and headband, but what was visible was an eye. She felt a fog form in her head and shook herself to clear it. A breeze obsured their voices then he moved away, leaving the sullen looking boy alone.
Tira lept to the ground and turned to face the young boy. His eyes widened in surprise. He looked around to see where she'd came from. Her face was pale and she had the apperance of one who'd not slept in days, possibly not eaten much either.
"Who are you?" He asked. "My name's ke. ke. You can trust me. Tell me who you are."
Tira shook her head. The hood of her cloak fell back revealing brilliant red hair. She began to tremble. Sasuke reached out for her and stedied her. Her cloak and all the clothing underneth was soaking wet and cold. She'd apparently been out in the snow for several days without the benifit of shelter. Tira caugis his hand in a death grip.
"Please, Sasuke. Can you tell me where I can find Kakashi?"
"He's my teacher. I can call him over here." Sasuke looked up and caught sight of Kakashi. "Master Kakashi, come over here, QUICK."
Even as he said that, the girl slipped from his grasp and fell to the snowy ground. Kakashi ran to where the fallen girl lay in the snow. Silently he reached down to see if she was still alive.
"She lives, but only barely. We must get her to safty. What did she say to you?"
"She asked me if I knew you, then she fainted. I don't know where she came from, I think she fell from the tree."
Kakashi reached down again and lifted the girl into his arms. As he lifted her, her cloak hood fell back more to reveal white tips to her firey hair. He made mental note of them and remembered a clan far away made their women mark their hair for every so many years they were old. Maybe she was from this clan. He'd recieved word more than a month before that they were in need of assistance, from him especialy.
"Master, is she from that clan we are going to help."
"I believe so, Sasuke, but I'm afraid if she's the only one searching for me, then the worst has already happened. She may be the sole survivor of the holocost their clan elders planned."
