Naruto:
It took me at least five minutes—I was positive—to make it out from the building.
I breathed a sigh of relief knowing I'd escaped further conversation with any of my eighth period class.
...But, as we know, once one problem is fixed, a new one just has to show up.
"...How on earth am I gonna get to Jiraiya's house?!"
I stared blankly at the city ahead, just past the pearly white gates of Konoha High. Students strolled past me, some lingering in the courtyard in groups. A few craned their necks to stare at me—
"Like I'm not used to that by now," I spoke, since no one would respond, anyways.
I watched as some were picked up in nice cars, others taking the scenic route (sidewalk) to their nearby homes.
Once again, I was feeling out of place.
I couldn't see anyone I knew—or wanted to see, for that matter.
I decided I'd walk and walk until I found a train, or a trustworthy grandmother to guide me. Those grandmothers were everywhere.
Avoiding a few personalities along the way, (namely: pasty number one and two), I managed to exit school grounds and begin my trek into the city.
And before you ask: No, of course I don't have a phone. Or anything that the average teen owns. That much I could gather in just one day of classes here at Konoha High.
So here I am, roaming the streets of a city I've only been in since yesterday.
"Mhm." I spoke to myself. "Yup!"
Just me, my scarcely used backpack...and the stranger that was staring me down from behind a tinted window.
...That ain't grandma.
I stopped in my tracks and stared back at them.
I could just barely make out their facial features from behind the darkened glass.
The stranger had dark eyes, dark hair, and pale skin. They looked to be older than me, with gentle lines of age decorating their attractive face. They slowed their expensive looking vehicle to a stop just beside me.
...I started to get nervous, 'cause this was smelling fishy!
Just then, they pulled the ultimate kidnapper move:
Rolling down the car window.
Silence enveloped us as we made full eye contact.
"..."
"Good afternoon."
I thought for a moment.
"Ah...hello."
What am I doing?
They must've seen the look on my face, and it must've been funny too, since they began to laugh at me.
"I'm sorry, don't be afraid."
I found it in me to protest.
"Why the hell not?! You're a stranger who just pulled up beside me! And you're trying to kidnap me, too! I know it!"
Their eyes widened, before a small smile returned to their face.
"I can assure you that I'm not here to kidnap you. Just let me explain myself..." They unbuckled their seatbelt.
