The Path of Life and the Test of Our Time! (Part Three)

Feeling a tap on my shoulder, I grabbed the pinkie finger and pushed it up, hearing Bakakashi's cry of pain.

"Oops." I said flatly as I dropped his finger and let him straighten, holding his pinkie to his chest.

"Why have you been standing here for over half an hour?" He asked after making sure his poor finger wasn't broken.

I blinked at the new information, I hadn't realized that I had been stand there for half an hour until now.

"I what?" I asked intelligently. Ah, sarcasm...

"You've been standing here for over half an hour." He repeated. "You even stood here through Sakura's screaming and Naruto's yelling." I nodded, my gaze soon returning to the stone.

"Oh." Was all I could get out as my eyes found the names once more. Bakakashi tried to pinpoint where my gaze had landed and soon found the names.

"I never knew your clan was here in the village."

I let out a short bark of dry laughter. "Yeah. Me neither." I replied bitterly. He hesitated before placing his hand on my shoulder once more.

"I...I've lost some one, too." He started. "Someone extremely close to me. Actually, almost everyone who has been close." He gazed at Obito's name with a dazed and sad tint to his eye.

"I know, Bakakashi." I let out before I could stop myself. "I know all about what yo-" I quickly cut myself off, feeling his hand tighten on my shoulder. I frowned, I came into this place and I can't even fix the things that would make this world become a better version of itself, just because it would fuck up everything.

"What was that?" He asked, a knowing tone slipping into his voice.

"...Nothing." I murmured, shrugging off his hand. "We need to go. Naruto will probably try and find the bentos you put out, so you can go all Creepy-Kashi on him while I go all Napping-Kasumi in a tree branch." I walked off soon after, feeling Bakakashi's single eyed stare on my back as I passed Sakura walking by and still trying to find Sasuke.

Finally arriving at the posts, I heard Sakura shriek and knew she met Hole-Head-Sasuke. Sighing, I sat down and leaned against the pole in the middle, closing my eyes as I let my head fall back. The sun made the inside of my eyelids seem a red-orange color, and soon I got annoyed and stood with a heavy sigh. I sigh a lot, don't I...?

Moving to a tree that had a substantial amount of shade, I laid down and placed my hands behind my head, staring at the clouds and the tree's limbs moving in the light breeze. I can see why Shikamaru likes cloud watching, it gives you a moment to think about something or think abou nothing. It's a way to calm the mind from the hecktic world around you and just...relax.

As my mind stopped thinking about the newly acquired information, I felt my body relax completely. My eyes slowly started to drift closed, my breath evened out quickly. Just before I fell asleep, a thought popped into my mind.

If I fall asleep, someone could easily take the bell... But I'm so comfortable... Ah, screw it.

The white haired girl opened her crystal blue eyes slowly as she awoke. Sitting up, she yawned and looked around her curiously before getting into her feet.

She found herself in a grassy field, the bright green grass swayed in the breeze that sent her white dress and hair flying about. Noticing her feet were bare, she curled her toes, the grass tickling the bottoms.
