"So... So—Uncle Sora, before we start. I feel like I should tell you something extremely important," I started as I sat down at the dining table in Sora's House, Sora and Mina sitting opposite me.
The table was large with made me think they may have a moderately large family. The house was large, the floor was wooden, and the walls were white with some stone textures mixed in, the walls on the inside were painted a pale blue. There were stairs in the middle of the hallway that spiralled up to the first and second floor as well as the basement.
The living room was just across the hallway from the dining room and the kitchen was through a door at the back of the dining room. It was a nice place, a bit too big for two people, though.
"I'm home!" a girls voice filled the house as the door opened.
"Hello darling," Mina greeted her, "y/n, this is Zera. Your cousin."
"Nice to meet you," I stood up and shook Zera's hand. She had white hair, brown eyes and pale, but not a sickly pale, skin. Her hair was braided into a fishtail braid, and it reached just above her butt. I can imagine it was probably over her butt when it wasn't braided. She looked around 17 or 18 years old.
Her blue mark was a snake around her neck.
"You're very pretty," Zera blurted out, I laughed and shook my head.
"Thanks but you're definitely youths best friend," I replied, she smiled before taking a seat beside Sora and I sat back down.
"So, to start you need a place to stay. You can stay in our spare room while we have you a little place built up," Sora told me, Zera was looking at me curiously.
"Sorry, but how old are you?" Zera asked me.
"13... in a couple weeks."
"You're so young to be alone!" Mina exclaimed.
"I wouldn't be if I had the choice. But I'm a survivor, I know how to be alone and how to survive alone," I told them, they looked away sadly.
"You shouldn't have to though," Zera mumbled. I showed them my leaf ninja headband and then tapped the Snowflake Guardian symbol on my arm.
"I'm a ninja and a Snowflake Guardian. I have to know how to survive," I told them. They sighed but nodded knowing that I am right.
"How long will you be here?" Sora asked.
"I have a 3-year leave for training. So we'll say 2 years and 10 months?" I estimated.
"Why 10 months?" Mina asked.
"I can travel through shadows easily because I know where you guys are now, but I have a few people I want to visit before going back to Konohagakure because I don't know when this next opportunity will come around," I told them, I want to see Honoko and the sand siblings before going back home.
"You can travel through the shadows?" Sora questioned, I nodded.
"It's the reason why I don't have one of my own without standing in snow or on ice," I replied, they all gave me an impressed look before the door opened again.
