Forgotten By Time : A Naruto Fanfiction

3. The Ninja World

[Save me]

I've got your beady eyes beating down on me
Wish I could turn this around its killing me
I need a hand in letting go
Cause everyday begins the same so
Pour it all out bring me down for another day
Nobody's gonna save me

"Oh hold on young one! You said you ran over the wall??"

"For the fifth time yes for crying out loud! Aren't there more important things to focus on here though?!" I questioned.

Lee had indeed taken me his his master, who looked like an older and creepier copy of Lee.

They both appeared to spend most of their time on the training grounds, and that's where we were right now.

For some reason Lee's more mature copy, also named Gai, was obsessed with youth and training, which lead to him only questioning me about how I discovered my incredible speed.

"Ah you're right!" The older spandex sporting man exclaimed, thrusting his palm out and striking a dramatic pose.
"We must figure out who you are now this instant!"

I smacked my palm to my forehead.

"That's what I've been trying to do since I woke up!" I roared.

Gai shot his hands up in surrender. "Oh! The blue haired girl has a temper!"

I shook my head, putting my hands on my hips.

"I'm sick of not having a name... Being called 'the blue haired girl' constantly, sucks, belive it"

Lee moved his hand up to stroke his chin, taking a thoughtful position.

"How about, we give you a name? For now I mean?" He said suddenly, grinning towards me.

I raised my eyebrows, but nodded in approval.

"Doesn't sound too bad" I agreed, and then clapped my hands together.

"Allright!" I exclaimed "Name me!"

Lee struck a victory pose, which made my eye twitch.

"But nothing weird!" I barked, bopping Lee on the head to make him turn back to normal.

Or at least as normal as Lee could be.

He rubbed his head and nodded, his usual determined expression returning.

"How about Blue?"

"Are you serious?... "

"Amethyst then?"

"What is that even?"

"Sapphire!"

"No!"

"Crystal!"

"Guys I'm not a rock!?"

"Princess?"

"Do you have an actual death wish?"

I threw my hands up in the air.
"Lee you are impossible! Enough already! You're not allowed to name me anymore!"

As I decided that, Lee looked like the great depression struck him. Instead I turned to Gai, who'd been unusually quiet.

I'd known him for approximately ten minutes and I already felt something was off.

"Hey spandex man? Any suggestions?" I wondered, poking his forehead.

Gai seemed to wake up from a trance as he suddenly looked down at me with a rather surprised expression, mixed with recognition and wonder.

"How about Hikari?" He said in a neutral tone.
