In the hospital

(Her looks are on the cover)

Before I could finish my sentence, someone burst open the door.

"Old Man!" A small boy yelled at the person as he was about to enter.

He has blond, spiked-hair, and lines on his cheeks that were somewhat whiskers.

"I heard you were going to check out the outsider, so I decided to check him out too!"

Him?! Doesn't that freak know that I'm a girl?! Just he wait 'til I recover! I'll beat the snot out of him!

"Ah, Naruto. I should've known that you'd be coming too," the 'old man' said.

Naruto?! Then it is true! I am in Konoha! I'm in the Naruto World!

"Forgive me Lord Hokage. I couldn't stop him," a person from outside the room said.

Hokage?! That's it! I can't take this anymore! I must find a way back to my world!

"Excuse me, I don't want to be rude in asking this but, who are you?" I said with the slightest fear in my voice.

"Oh, that's right. I haven't introduced myself to you, have I? My name is-"

But he was cut off by another sudden opening of the door.

Another blond person came in. This time it was a female person.

"Sorry I was late! Did I miss anything?" The person said while gasping for breath. I guess she ran.

"As I was saying, my name is Sarutobi, the third Hokage. And this is my student, Tsunade," he introduced.

"My name is Naruto Uzumaki! And one day, I'm gonna be the Hokage!" Naruto exclaimed. I suppose he was disappointed that the Third Hokage didn't introduce him.

Tsunade's fist was clenched like she was about to hit Naruto. But she cooled off.

"May I know who you are?" The Hokage asked politely.

Oh no. I can't tell them my real name! If I do then the creep might think I'm still alive and come back to finish me off!

"My name is...my name...is..."

"You're name is?" Tsunade asked, annoyed.

"My name is Tomoko Yamanate!" I finally blurted out.

"Tomoko, eh. Nice name," Naruto said.

Phew! I thought I was done for! Tomoko was the only name I could think of, in that awkward situation.

"Okay, Tomoko, just relax while we ask questions," the Hokage said, or maybe suggested.

I nodded in agreement and sat up in a comfortable way.

"Where are your parents?"

"They're both gone." I felt a small tear forming and I stopped it.

"Brothers or sisters?"

"I'm an only child."

"Where do you live?"

"I don't really know."

"How old are you?"

"Come on! Old Man! Do you still have to ask that question?!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Yeah, it's obvious that she's seven," Tsunade added.

"I'm seven years old," I just said to hide the fact that I'm actually 13.

"Wait for a moment."

The three went out for a moment but I can hear their conversation but only a little.

The only clear words that I actually heard were...

"NO WAY! I'm not doing this!"

"Yes, you are. AND THAT'S AN ORDER!"

A few moments later they went back in the room and Naruto looked like he got punched in the face.

"Tomoko, while you are here in Konoha, you are to stay with Naruto, and probably live with him for some time until further notice," the Third Hokage announced.

A few moments later, there was a knock on the door.

Finally! Someone actually tried to knock first before barging in.

"Excuse me, but we have the clothes and other items that belong to the patient."

Huh? My stuff? My clothes?! They have my sling bag?!

I looked eagerly at my stuff. But I noticed that something was not right.

Those were not my real clothes. I was still wearing my school uniform back then.

The creep that 'poisoned' me must have switched it.

Those clothes were smaller, for seven year-olders I suppose.

Duh, I look like a seven year old! So they will surely think those clothes were mine.

But I accepted it nonetheless. At least I have clothes and my other stuff were still there.

"As soon as you recover, I will have Naruto come pick you up," The Hokage said.

"But right now, you must rest," he continued.

They all went outside. But I can hear them talking.

"She must be one of Orochimaru's experiments who survived." It was the Hokage's voice.

"Poor girl, Orochimaru must have erased some of her memories too." It was Tsunade's.

"We must take care of her. I'm sure she will be of help to us in our search for Orochimaru," the Hokage said.

"But she's too young!" Tsunade protested.

"Yeah! And she's not even a ninja!" It sounded like Naruto, protesting.

"You're not even a ninja yourself," Tsunade added, smirking.

"I will soon be!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Then it's settled! You and Tomoko will go to the Academy this year," the Hokage said.

"Tomoko will become a ninja. And-" He continued but was cut off.

"Hey! What about me?! Won't I become a ninja?" Naruto complained.

"As I was saying, Naruto will become a ninja too," the Hokage continued.

"Yey!" Naruto shouted with joy.

And that was the end of their conversation.

I looked outside the window and saw a starry sky.

I lied down and enjoyed the view.

I closed my eyes, only to find out that I'm more tired than I thought.

I thought of my family in the real world, all my friends.

And Kristianna, I wonder if she is still waiting for her chips.

I laughed at the thought and then drifted off to sleep.
