Amani sat by the rivers edge, she wasn't completely certain about her decision and yet she knew that it was now or never. She would talk to each of them and then she would tell them.

Her eyes lingered to her reflection and she touched her cheeks. I was crying.

She looked up to the sky and watched as the sun began to peak through the clouds. She slowly got to her feet and stretched. Before it all, Amani wanted to talk to the soul within her. She needed to know something.

Amani walked through the forest until she came across a familiar medow and stone. Her eyes lingered on the stone and she sat on to it. She closed her eyes and began go mediate.

The world around her was dark, the cold air caused Amani to see her breathe. She walked slowly within the strange realm, her foot touched water and suddenly the world became lit by a pale light.

Amani looked across the small pond and saw a familiar figure. The woman glided across the water and to the child. "What brings you child?", her voice whispered.

"I wish to know the truth within their hearts", Amani declared. The figure stretched out it's hand and grabbed Amanis.

"So you wish to see what lingers within the heart of men. To search through the shadows of their souls", the figure danced ever so slightly.

"I wish to see what it is they truly want", Amani said. She wanted to give her heart to a particular one of them but first she needed to know her heart wouldn't be broken again.

The shadow danced around Amani as she began to hum. It would seem that her host was finally ready. "Very well, gaze into my eyes and think of who you wish to see".

Amani was floating around the darkness. Her eyes lingered on four figures and she approached them. First she was face to face with a silver haired ninja. She pressed her lips to his and glimpsed within the depths of his heart.

Kakashi was currently facing off a woman with strange chakra. He felt a sudden warmth within his chest and took a deep breathe. Amani watched as Kakashis past flickered passed her by. She saw the heartache he had endured. Then she saw a woman standing by Kakashis side.

"Oh Kakashi! It's been a while", the brunette giggled. Kakashi sighed and rubbed the back of his neck.

"Has It? I swear we were together last night", Kakashi chuckled. The woman wrapped her fingers into his and kissed his cheek.

"Well lady Tsunade is sending me on another mission. One day there will be a captain to replace me and then we can be together properly", the woman giggled. Kakashi sighed and looked down at the brunette.

"Relationships are just tricky Naomi. We are fine with what we have", Kakashi mumbled.

The woman seemed to laugh in agreement before leaving. Amani watched how the images flickered to where he had fought Amani.
