The gate to the leaf village. It's a very impressive construction. Standing in front of it she couldn't help but feel small. Very very small. The gate was no joke. She knew it was big. It was often described as such. She saw it often. Very often. But seeing things on screen is very different than seeing things in real life. Real life often surprises you. Life is unexpected after all. Unexpected and mysterious. You never know what could happen. Even so people have certain expectations. Things in the line of reality. Things that could actually happen. Simple things. Like being a doctor when you grow up. Or winning the lottery. Becoming the president. These are all things that are within the line of reality. What isn't in that line is waking up in a forest in the middle of nowhere with short term memory loss. Even more impossible is finding out that you went from 15 years old to 5 years old. The impossibilities keep on going. Not only did she wake up in a forest, find out she was five and suffered from short term memory loss, she somehow stumbled upon the gate to the leaf village. The line of reality had completely shattered at that moment. None of these things were thought to be possible. It shouldn't be possible, but there she stood staring at the gate to the village she always desired to be a part of. She was confused. Who wouldn't be in such a situation? She was also happy. She found herself in an anime. Not just any anime. The anime she watched for as long as she could remember. The one thing that had some sort of meaning in her life. The place she wished to be in everyday. She was there. She was excited. And she couldn't help the bright smile that snuck up on her.

She wasn't aware of how long she had stood staring at the huge gate. Bright smile on her face. The realization that what was happening could actually be real was, well, it was euphoric to her. She had pinched herself multiple times to make sure she wasn't dreaming. Of course she wasn't dreaming. She had slipped off a tree branch and fell, very roughly and ungracefully, on the hard ground. If that couldn't wake her nothing could. At some point she had to tear her eyes away from the gate. It was amazing to look at, but she would prefer getting past it. With how huge the gate was the only way through was with permission. Her eyes landed on the so called guards. The smile on her face grew even more when she saw the two men. She knew them very well. Kotetsu and Izumo. The excitement that filled her upon seeing them was almost too much for her to handle. She was such a huge fan of the world she found herself in and of course huge fans of the people that inhabit it. Kotetsu and Izumo. They were well known for sleeping on the job, as they were at that very moment.

"What should I do? "

What should she do? She wanted to wake them up. That's what she'll proceed to do. How though? The urge to throw a stone at them was oddly strong. It was the teenager in her that was screaming at her to do it. She figured people really had a good reason to fear teens. She overruled the urge and instead chose a better option. A non violent option. Assaulting two chunin level ninja did not sound like a brilliant idea to her anyways.

She walked up to the sleeping guards and tugged on their clothes. Her height took some time getting used to and was still very weird to her. The only thing she thought would work was tugging on their clothing. Her first tug got no response. Her second was a bit stronger, but again was unappreciated. She sighed and tugged a third time, adding more strength, which was not a lot considering her new size. Third time really was a  charm. The ninjas jumped awake and looked around warily. Izumo took on a defensive position all the while looking groggy. She couldn't help but let out a small giggle at the off looking pair. That gained her attention from said pair.

"A kid? " Izumo questioned as he looked at the platinum blonde. What was a child doing out there? "What are you doing here kid? "

"It's a long story, I just really need to see the Hokage" She said. She looked at the man with the best puppy eyes she could muster. Being a child is like being a hot boy or girl. You need to use your looks to your advantage. Lucky for her she was a very adorable five year old. With her hair reaching past her waist she looked even more adorable. She knew this. A ninja must use everything to their advantage. And that's exactly what she's doing.
