oo1st ♦ audio > written

[doubtingly]

Ah-! I didn't mean to- Um, I- I suppose if I do this instead--

[The journal switches to written after that short, accidental audio message from a soft-spoken, yet obviously tired young woman. The text that follows is written after a few moments, though.]

My name is Hyuuga Hinata. I am looking for

If anyone out there is kind enough to give me directions, or perhaps a map, to this place, I will be very much grateful.

I need to go back to the place I came from to help a good friend in need.

Please.

Thank you and I apologize for the bother.

[Hinata ends her short message and keeps the journal close to her. She knows the name of this place, has gone through her fair share of freaking out before finally turning to her journal for help. She activates her Byakugan for the third time since getting here to search for clues but she can't keep using her bloodline like this. This is probably the last time she can with how low her chakra is right now.]

Re: action!!!

[slugly]

Hinata and I are not going to fight over something stupid like that!

[Hinata was far too mild-mannered. Ino, on the other hand...

Sakura doesn't care about top bunks and bottom bunks and she's going to guess Hinata didn't either.

After her small rage at Naruto she blows out a sigh.]

Some of it is explained on the first page of the journal but essentially you need to find a boat and a crew to find shards of a ruby so we can go back home.

[Sasuke could doubt all he wanted, Sakura had to believe in it. They had nothing else. Besides, they would find out when they found them all.]

What do you say? Do you want to join our crew?

Re: action!!!

[obstinates]

[Why won't they fight over it? Please fight over top bunk and let him watch.

Also, he just nods his head at Sakura's explanations and the talk about the crew before looking at Hinata once more.]

Of course she does! We've got the best crew.

action!!!

[doubtingly]

[Welp, Naruto pretty much answered for her. Not that she'll say otherwise, of course. The offer, though, makes her smile.]

Oh, um, thank you for the invitation.

[She even blushes a little because it's a flattering gesture.]

I accept. I- I will join your crew.

[Not that she has much of a choice. She'll go where her friends are, after all.]

WELL SHIT I DIDNT GET A NOTIF

[slugly]

[It's a good thing Hinata agrees even if Sakura shoots Naruto a small look for not even giving Hinata a chance to answer on her own. She's naturally soft-spoken he doesn't need to talk over her GOSH.

She grins. And mentally notes to tell the captain about their new member and how incredibly talented and what a top notch asset she will be to the ship.]

Great! We can use all the help we can get! And I'm sure your Byakugan will be really helpful in finding the shards.

[LIKE SEEING NARUTO AND SASUKE SMILING]

Let's head to the ship and I'll show you around.

[BYE NARUTO GIRL TALK TIME]
