Author's Note: Just thought I'd let the readers know that at this point, Naruto and the others are genin, but have not recieved the mission to the Land of Waves yet. So, obviously that will be later on. Anyway, on with the story! ^^

Aisa's P.O.V

The first thing I felt was nothing. Literally nothing. My body wouldn't move and my eyes wouldn't open. I heard a rhythmic beeping somewhere to my left and the steady breathing of a sleeping person off to the right.

Second thing I felt.....the sudden pounding of my head. OW! What the hell hit me?! A chakra bomb?!?! Mentally sighing, I turned my attention to my inactive body. Focusing my mind, I willed them to move. After what felt like hours, I felt my finger twitch. I smirked in my head. HA! And that's how it continued. Slowly, I felt my body waking up. It felt like eons before I could finally feel the whole of my body. Opening my eyes, I was greeted by a blinding white. Groaning I closed them again and turned my head to the side. I reopened my eyes slowly. Once they adapted to the brightness, I took a good look at my surroundings. The beeping turned out to be a heart moniter. So, I'm in a hospital. But how did I get here?I couldn't see very much else, seeing as someone had pulled a curtain around my bed. Just then, a door opened somewhere to my right. The curtain was pulled back, revealing a window and blinding sunlight. I winced, then looked to see a smiling woman in a nurses outfit. "OH! You're awake!" I tried to speak, but it came out as a croak. She smiled again. "Looks like I came at the right time!" She set down the tray she was carrying, that I had somehow not noticed, and handed me a glass of water. I drank it down gratefully. She chuckled. "Better?" I smiled. "Much, thank you." "You're welcome! So, what's your name sweetie?" "Aisa. Aisa Yaban." "Well Aisa, I want you to eat up, and the medic should be with you shortly." She gave me one more closed eye smile before exiting the room. I reached for the pudding cup while surveying the rest of my surrounding. There was a chair in the far right corner near the door, in which slept a silver-haired man. Maybe he can tell me where I am and how I got here......"Hey.....Umm.....Wake up, please....." I tried for a bit to wake him, but it was hard and grated on my nerves. Finally, my temper got the better of me and I chucked the apple from my food tray at him. "OW!!!! What in the...Oh! You're awake!" I nodded. "Ya, and you're a heavy sleeper. Now that we've got basics out of the way, can you tell me what I'm doing here.....and where he is exactly?" He gave me a closed eye smile from behind his mask. "Of course, my apologies. Right now you're in the Hidden Leaf Village in the Land of Fire. I found you bleeding out in the forest a ways from here. Lucky I did too, or you would probably be dead right now." I let that sink into my mind before speaking again. "So, I have you to thank for my life. Thanks, I really thought I was gonna die out there......" Without seeing my clan ever again....He chuckled softly. "No worries. As long as you don't go and almost die again, we'll call it even." I nodded. Just then, the medic walked in with a clipboard. "Well miss, it seems you've healed quite quickly. Most of your wounds have already closed and your heart rate is normal. We still want you to say for another night so that your body can replenish the blood you lost. Other then that, you have a clean bill of health." I smiled at him. "Glad to know." He seemed a bit flustered. Oh boy....not again.... I really didn't need any new fan club members. "Anyway, you just relax and you'll be out of that bed before you know it!" With that, he left the room. "So...." I looked at silver hair. "Ya?" "What's your name? I mean....I can't just call you bloody forest girl...." "And I can't call you anti-gravity hair......" He chuckled at that. "Kakashi. Kakashi Hatake." I smiled. "Aisa Yaban." "Well Aisa, glad to meet you. "Like wise." A knock sounded at the door before a man in a painted mask stepped in. "Kakashi, the Hokage wants to meet our....guest." Kakashi shook his head. "Doctor says she shouldn't be getting out of bed yet. There's no way she can go to meet him in her condition right now." Then ANOTHER voice sounded. "That won't be necessary, I'm right here." I looked over to see an old man in a long white outfit with the weirdest hat I had ever seen. He walked over and pulled a chair up next to my bed. "Well young one, it seems you've caused quite the scene. It's not every day that a well known jounin comes running through the gate with a half dead girl in his arms." I chuckled. "No, I suppose that wouldn't be an everyday thing. I would be more worried if it were." He laughed at that. "Now, I think we're going to get along just fine. I just want to ask a few questions, then we can let you rest up." I smiled. "Go for it." "Very well. Is it true that ou are from the Hidden Shadow Village?" I nodded. "How long have you been a shinobi?" I frowned and asked, "How long have I been asleep?" "Only a day." "Then my graduation exam was about one month ago." He puffed on the pipe I hadn't noticed. Wow, I'm losing my touch....Need to pay more attention. "So you're still a genin. Who is your sensei?" "I don't have one sir. The clan was attacked before they could be assigned." This startled everyone. I sighed and then told them about the day my clan was attacked. The Hokage seemed to think something over. Then a smile lit up his crinkled face. "Aisa....how would you like to be part of a team here in the Leaf Village?" I felt my eyes go wide. "Huh? But.....how could you garuntee that I would be loyal to this village. I know no one but you three and I am already a genin of another village...." He chuckled. "I don't know why, but I feel that I can most deffinately trust you. As for already being part of another village....Well, who says you can't be part of both? As long as we are on godd terms with each other, I forsee no problem. So what do you say? Care to try on our graduation exam and become a Leaf shinobi?" I weighed this in my mind. On one hand, I barely knew these people. On the other, I owed them and their village my life. "Alright. I'll do it." "Excellent! Now, tomorrow all you have to do is pass the exam." "Which is?" "Clone jutsu." I paused for a moment before breaking out in laughter. "CLONES?! That's it?! I can do that right now!" I made the sign and in a poof of smoke, there were ten of me around the room. The Hokage smiled and laughed with me. "Well, alright then! Welcome to the Hidden Leaf Village!"
