A...a wooden elephant...?

Uh huh. It's pretty big, so you should be able to see it if you're by the kitchen or something.

... Oh! And it's not a real elephant. It's just, uh. A big structure shaped like one. The door's in the side, and there are a couple of windows where the eyes are.

I'm... not sure where I am, honestly.

That's still a pretty funny thing to have a structure of! Why an elephant?

... Are you lost? I can probably help you out if you tell me what you see around you, maybe?

It's a long story! Sort of. See, this one time this huge elephant appeared, and me and one of my best friends (Obito, you'll probably meet him at some point! Look for... orange and goggles. He's my roommate too.) ended up getting a ride on him. He showed up a couple times after that -- we called him Mr. Elephant -- and then we found out he had wings. I haven't seen him in a really long time, but I managed to give Obi a baby elephant we named Junior for his birthday, so... uh, where was I? Oh yeah! Basically, we have this awesome history with elephants, and they've always just been really cool and fun.

I mostly just see a bunch of tents...

I-I like elephants... I enjoy looking at them whenever I go to the Ueno Park Zoo.

Okay, so you should probably just pick a path and... start walking. Eventually you're gonna either hit a wall or the couch area where most people hang out sometimes. You shouldn't encounter anything dangerous, but uh, if you see... anyone with long blond hair in a ponytail, or any guy with a knife or a gun, or an... angry woman who isn't wearing much, it might be a good idea to try a different direction.

Yeah? You should come visit me and Obi and Junior sometime! I can even give you a tour of the elephant if you really want to see how it works. It's awesome.

Actually, I would prefer to stay here for a bit. This is where I showed up and I'm hoping that if anyone else shows up that is of interest to me, I'd like to be here waiting.

Oh - oh... I wouldn't want to impose...

Oh, okay! Yeah, that could be a good idea too. Have you spoken to anyone else who might've given you the welcome speech, about the wishes and elves and everything?

Hey, I offered. I really don't mind. Besides, if it ends up that you can't find anyone you know here, it's always good to have a friend somewhere, right?

Matt-san mentioned some things...

... Yes, friends are good to have.

Ahh, you'll be okay, then. Matt's been here a really long time. He knows pretty much all there is to know about this place.

Yep! There are some neat people around too, so you're bound to find at least a few.

Has... has Matt-san been here the longest?

I'm glad to hear that. Ah! I forgot again - my name is Subaru!

keyofkonoha May 16 2008, 01:15:40 UTC
Uhh, I don't really know. You could probably ask him! He was here before me, anyway, and I've been here... eight... months.

Oh, hey, I've me Nice to meet you, Subaru! I'm Sora, but I mentioned that in my post, I think.

[strike deleted. sora's deciding against dealing with the whole confusing 'you were here before!' issue for now. :T]

Th-that long...?

Oh, did you, Sora-san? I must have missed that...

keyofkonoha May 16 2008, 01:28:29 UTC
I guess! I didn't even realize it until I had to count. Time must have went by really fast.

That's okay! But yeah, I'm one of... a lot of Soras in this place. They're all pretty cool, so they probably wouldn't mind if you tried to talk to them. I'm usually wearing my leaf forehead protector, if you ever want to find me.

That's a very long time.

Is that what's on your forehead, Sora-san?

(Subaru is a master at asking the obvious.)

It is, sorta. But in case you're worried, I did get to go home a couple of months ago, so... you might, too! You never really know with this place.

Uh huh. Most of the ninjas here have them -- each symbol represents the villages they came from.
