A girl with long glossy black hair jumped down from the top branch of a tree, rolling apon impact with the floor.

Once black eyes turning a blood red with three irises, she cautiously approached the village, hiding behind obstructions and flattening herself up against the trees and wall so she wouldn't be seen.

Just as she was about to sneak in, just as she thought that she had won, she felt the cool metal of a kunai knives pressed up against her throat.

"Hey, hinata chan! I'm back!" Kurama yelled, waving at hinata. Hinata turned and grew a happy smile.

"Oh, n-kurama! You are back! How was it?" He grinned even though he knew she couldn't see it.

"Did ya miss me?" Hinata grew a bright blush and began twiddling her fingers. "Erm... About that"

"Huh? What is it hinata?" Kurama asked cluselessly. "I was.... Hoping we could go out somewhere and talk. To get to know each other better...." She trailed off nervously intertwining her fingers.

"Huh, like a date?" Hinata squirmed on the spot, nodding rapidly. Kurama smiled. "Sure, hinata chan! Where do you want to go?"

"Err.... Wherever you want..." Hinata murmered. "Well... Maybe the park on top of the hill? Meet me at 8:00pm! I'll see you there!"

Kurama jumped away, and hinata grew a serene smile. "Wow..."

But just a few metres away, a scarred face could be seen. A mop of golden hair fell out from behind the brick wall, and if you look close enough, a pair of turquoise eyes were full of tears.
