Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto and the Characters. I only own the story and the Characters I invented.

Previously:

Haldir gets new information, when he wants to share it with (Y/n) he gets overwhelmed by Theoden.
(Y/n) and Hinata engage in the copy of  Haldir and are brought to a new far away portal.
Neji learns from Haldir that Theoden is his copy ....

A light breeze blew around me.
The sun made me see a warm orange through my closed eyes as the yellow ball warmed up my body.
It was so nice and cozy that I wanted to keep my eyes closed.
Only now did I notice the gentle rocking caused by the person who was carrying me.
Person who is carrying me?

I opened my eyes and immediately regretted it.
We were definitely in our dimension, the sun felt three times as bright as the dimension of Neji.
There was a little murmur by Haldir's voice.
"Oh, you're finally awake." He stated. "Is everything all right with you?"
His friendly tone sounded suspicious to me and the fact that he hadn't even slowed down was strange.
His heart was beating wildly against his chest and his big hands were slightly sweaty.

I tried it again and this time opened my eyes a little more slowly and carefully.
"Haldir, where's Hinata?" Altough I saw only a little and all blurry, I immediately noticed that the Hyuga lady was not present.
He paused his movement for a moment, it almost seemed as if he was thinking about what to answer.
"Haldir?" I asked again and looked up at him, finally I saw normal again.
"Hinata -..." He interrupted himself and sighed. "- We have to keep going as fast as possible and I can't carry both of you." Admitted the dark elf.
I took a deep breath and pushed myself away from his chest.
Reluctantly, he let me down from his arms.
"Sure you can walk already?" He asked slightly worried.
"Yes, we have to go back to Hinata!" I explained to him.
"No, we can't. We have come already this far!" Haldir replied with a strong frown.
"We can't just leave Hinata alone in a strange dimension!" I said with a horrified tone.
"She is right next to the portal, she can just go back." Because of this remark, Haldir got a nasty look from me. "We're almost there. Just take a short look and we'll go back immediately."

I swallowed the strange feeling that was getting stronger and stronger and nodded slightly.
Something was wrong with him.
Was he maybe the copy?
Slowly, I followed him deeper into the thick colorful forest.
It felt like just a few minutes, it turned into half an hour and then a whole hour.
"When are we there?" I asked slightly impatiently to the elf.
"Almost! We're almost there." Haldir pushed aside a long hanging purple sheet.
"You said that ten minutes ago!" I wailed.
"You don't know that exactly, it just seems so long to you."He replied. "We are probably only fifteen minutes on the move."

With a deep sigh, I stopped. "I'm not going any further." I resisted.
Haldir slowly turned his body and his eyes to gave me a dangerous sparkling glare. "You don't mean that." He shook his head. "We don't have time for your childish behavior."
I took a step back. "I want to go back to Hinata."
"(Y/n), please-" Haldir took a step towards me and reached for my wirst as I dodged.
He raised both of his thin dark eyebrows.
My heartbeat was faster than ever, I felt sick with excitement and nervousness, and before I could even think, my feet became independent and I ran the path back to were we came from, but Haldir caught up with me in no time.
The now alienated elf grabbed me and forced me to stop.
I tried to get rid of him again, but to no avail.
"(Y/n) stop! Otherwise I have to hurt you." He yelled at me as he wrapped my wrists tightly.

With wide eyes I stared at his aggressive face when I petrified.
It was difficult for me to breathe and my throat felt like it dried out into dust.
The beads of sweat that had formed on my forehead were slowly running down my hot cheek.
"That's good." He dragged me deeper into the forest again. "It really won't be long now."
Like he said.
It wasn't long.
After only a few more minutes we walked on a clearing directly on a mountain.
There was a small but not too controversial cave entrance.
