3rd POV
On the bridge the workers.. Er the workers that are still there are... well working on the bridge. On the bridge sitting there are two girls the two girls from team 7. They had completed the training yesterday. Sakura, the bubble gum drama princess, yawns while Y/N pulls out her book and starts working on new remedies for *cough* curse marks*cough* she can only come up with things that rid the pain and seals that prevent it from spreading.
"It looks like you've got some time to kill, you always this lazy? What happened to the blond boy and that stuck-up boy?" Y/N slips her book into her pouch, "They're in the middle of training."
"What to hard for you?"
"No we're the best!"
"Really?" Sakura gets angry at this, "What?!" Y/N puts a hand on her shoulder to prevent her from pulverizing him and she calms down. Then a worker walks over to Tazuna, "You got a minute, Tazuna?"
"Huh? What's up, Giichi?"
"I gave it a lot of thinking on building this bridge will you let me quit?" At this Y/N gets a little ticked, "Why so suddenly?! You too?!"
"Tazuna, I've had a bound with you you from the old days. I'd like to cooperate, but if we push it too far, Gato will set his sights on us, too. Also if you get killed, everything will be lost! Why don't you just stop building the bridge?" Y/N walks by and says, "Wimp," Giichi looks at the girl and so does Tazuna and Sakura as she starts to help out building. Tazuna then looks back at Giichi, "Not a chance. This is our bridge. This is the bridge that everyone in town has built believing that it would generate distribution and transportation for this poor Land of Waves that has few resources."
"But if it goes so far as to take our liv-."
"It's already afternoon. Let's call it a day." Y/N walks back up after helping a little and mutters, "coward," and walks back over to Sakura. Sakura stands up as Tazuna and Giichi finish their little quarrel, "And don't bother coming back!"

3rd POV
"dang it! What the heck is up with this?!" Naruto yells to no one in particular. As both, he and Sasuke, look at their progress. They look at eachother determined, I won't lose to you! Naruto thinks as Sasuke just looks at him. They both start trying again.
Elsewhere
"Say, where are we going?" Sakura asks Tazuna, "I was asked to get some ingredients for dinner on the way home, you wanna eat right?" Tazuna responds. They all watch and look around at the poor state of the village, What's wrong with these people Sakura thinks. Y/N pulls out one of her summoning scrolls labeled medicine. Chances are I'm allergic to something her because... sheesh I'm starting to sneeze more.
"We're here.." They walk in and the shopkeeper welcomes them. Sakura looks around as Y/N pulls out her book... again but says, "The poor state of the town.... That's why I helped a little." Sakura nods in understanding as the H/C hair colored girl goes back to reading. Tazuna picks up a few things as Sakura thinks There's hardly anything here. A man walks by and sees Sakura's bag and reaches for it. Sakura kicks him away and yelled, "You Pervert!" Y/N claps, "Nice kick"
"Man I was really surprised earlier."
"What's going on with this town?!" Another person grabs her skirt, Again!? But when she turns around it's just a kid, "Please can I have some," she asks holding out her hands. She reaches into her bag and gives her some candy, "This is how it's been ever since Gato showed up. Here, all the adults have turned into cowards. So that's why now that bridge is necessary. It's a symbol of bravery in order to restore their spirit, so they don't keep running away. If we can just... complete that bridge. This town will return to how it once was and everyone will come back." Tazuna says determined, Sasuke... Naruto...
Back to the forest
Sasuke and Naruto are still running up the trees. Naruto gets up and starts to fall, Are you telling me that Sasuke's still climbing?! Naruto thinks. Darn it He's gradually catching up. Sasuke thinks, Darn it! No! NO! If I let myself get distracted by Sasuke, my concentration will be disturbed! He remembers back to when he asked Sakura for advice. He concentrated on getting the chakra to his feet and starts at the tree until, "Hey Naruto!" Sasuke calls and Naruto faceplants into the ground.
"Jeez, what the heck's wrong with you!? Don't interfere while I'm trying to concentrate!"
"U...Uh...Well...?"
"What is it?" I'm not used to him speaking to me first...
"Y-You asked Sakura to give you some tips before... What did she say to you?" Sasuke asks blushing slightly and looking away. Naruto goes eyes wide and starts to grin, "I'm not telling?" He states and Sasuke looks at him, ticked off, then they have a stare off.

Y/N's POV
"This is fun. It's been a long time since we've had a meal with this many people!" Everyone was sitting and eating. Naruto was shoveling everything in and Sasuke was eating equal as fast, "Seconds Please!" They ask as I scoot away from them as they throw up.
"If you're going to throw up then what's the point of eating so much?!"
No I have to get strong as quickly as possible, so.." Kakashi nods, "Yes, yes! But vomiting is different." I nods and gets up to change into something a little more comfortable. I come back in 3 minutes to find sakura asking about the photo, to which I ended up facepalming.
"It's my husband..." Tsunami says, "He's a man who was onced called a hero of this town." Inari gets up and goes outside, "Father, I'm always telling you not to talk about that person in front of Inari!"
"What're you saying happened with Inari?" Sakura asks, "It appears there's some kind of good reason. Is there a story?"
"Inari had a father not related by blood, It was like they were a real father and son who got along really well. Back then, Inari was a child..." I start to zone out because one it makes me somewhat sad and I already know the story. I get up and start to leave, "Hey Y/N where are you going?" Kakashi-Sensei asks, "The roof." I smile softly as I walk away.

Sakura's POV
"What're you doing, Naruto?" I ask as he falls out of his seat, "You've had enough training for today. You've built up to much chakra. You'll die if you move any more than that. " Kakashi-Sensei says, "I'll prove it."
"Prove what?" I ask as he stands up, "That there are heroes." He states this and suddenly we hear... ? We all get up to go check it out and look around. I look up and see Y/N on the roof, "Kakashi-Sensei, look." I point towards Y/N as she makes the background music come in somehow. We all listen, even Inari comes out.
When she finishes we clap and she looks down. She has one tear coming down out of her right eye. I wonder what happened in her past. She does a front flip off the roof, "Come on guy, let's go inside it's time to go to bed." She states and walks inside like nothing happened.
~*~
Y/N's POV
How'd I not know they were there!? I guess when I sing I just let it all out, I didn't even notice I was crying. Kakashi-Sensei comes in, "Can we talk?" He asks and I nod.
"What was that about? What happened?" I shrug, "Nothing harder than what Sasuke or Naruto have been though. Nor you. Just my parents were killed and I never felt like I belonged..." Kakashi-Sensei nods then tenses, "You know about my past?" I nod, "Yeah, I know everyone's past pretty much, I get visions, it's kinda weird."
"Have you told anyone?" I shake my head, "No ones cared enough to ask." Even my teachers... "You're the first to actually care or worry about me, besides maybe the Hokage and I'm pretty sure Naruto wanted to know more." I start to feel tired and lay down on the futon, "Night, Kakashi-Sensei." He walks out and I slip into darkness.
