Begin again

Chapter 1

Hey there I decided to rewrite this chapter. Since I had to agree with one of my reviewer. Deb.23 my new co-writer has been helping me with it. I don't know what would I do without you. Seriously Thanks a lot. I would advice my readers who read this chapter to read it again because I have changed some of the content inside to make it a better story. And many thanks to the reviewers who liked it and criticized it. Thanks for all the favs and follows. I really appreciate it all. ^_^ I'll be done with 2nd chapter soon.

When she opened her eyes, it was dark. She couldn't see properly at first but after her sight adjusted to the darkness, she could make things out. She was surrounded by huge thick trees. Even though it was night the air was humid. The sticky atmosphere made her feel uncomfortable. The place seemed prone to the rain. It looked like she was in an evergreen forest. She tried to stand up but she felt really tired and sluggish for some reason. She seemed lost unable to comprehend what was happening. Her mind felt heavy as if she just woke up from a very long slumber.

"So finally you are awake,I have been waiting for you to wake up. Its almost been a week.. I was so worried." A very vaguely familiar voice caught her attention. Her mind was still in a daze so she couldn't recognize whom it belong to but the voice was familiar for sure. She turned around to look at the person who she presumed talking to her.

What she saw really surprised her, she screamed out loud but nothing came out of her throat.

"Please don't be scared, I didn't mean to frighten you." It was no wonder that she was surprised. The woman standing before her was almost transparent, emitting a faint glow. She seemed like a spirit but instead of spooky, she appeared heavenly.

After staring at the unearthly woman for a while she calmed down but started panicking again. "Wh... What are you? Are you dead? Am... am I dead? ..."Before the questioned person could answer, the chain of questions was interrupted. The scared woman felt a sharp pain in her head, she clenched her head tightly, her nails were digging into her scalps but pain was too much to bear and she fell onto her knees. The ghostly woman approached her quickly to help her but she knew the person in pain will have to deal with it on her own, at least for a while, either way she tried her best to comfort her. A huge collection of images started flashing in front of her eyes like small videos running one after another, after hours of suffering exhaustion took over and she started losing consciousness. Last thing she heard was a worried voice calling for her again and again before she completely blacked out and her body collapsed on the ground.

By the next time she woke up. She was not confused nor was she at a loss. She had been dreaming about her past the whole time she had been asleep. Her head was clearer, and she finally remembered everything. There was still a dull pain in her head, and when she tried to sit up, she felt dizzy again. Seeing this, the ghostly woman she met earlier ran to her side and helped her up and subtly asked "So do you remember now?"

The questioned woman nodded "Yes as a matter of fact I do Hinata." "Thank goodness. You have been out for a whole day." Hinata informed her. She looked worried. Now that her thoughts are settled she recalled Hinata's appearance and asked "why do you look like this?"

"I'm not the only one Sakura look at you." She did as she was told. She lifted her hand in front of face. Her eyes widen in shock then she gazed down at her body. Her whole body was translucent just like that of her companion. They appeared to be around the age of seventeen or eighteen. Their translucent bodies were draped a thin layer of white kimono and their hair was longer last time she checked she was the mother of a fifteen year old herself and her hair was shorter and the same goes for her companion.

"I'm not sure myself, I woke up a week before you did but it appears like our bodies are made up of chakra. It's more like all the fragments of our chakra are accumulating here to reconstruct our body, more the chakra accumulates the more we become visible. I still have my doubts, if we are going to get our physical bodies back or not. We can't feel heat or cold or any other sensations, we don't feel hunger or thirst. Apparently we can't go outside this mountain. And for some reason we appear younger. That is all I know from a week of experience."
