People seem to be disappearing left and right. This is definitely not good. Even one of my students is missing, not to mention a few of my former students as well.

Kakashi? I'm going to hope that you went on a last-minute mission and couldn't tell me you were leaving, rather than think that you disappeared as well.

I'm afraid that I too have "disappeared." Rest assured, however, that I am well enough. I am trying to find a way out, but I haven't had any luck thus far.

If you could tell me who has gone missing, I will try to look for them here.

[surf_and_turf]

Well, it's not like I don't know that you can take care of yourself. You're more than capable in that regard.

It's one of Konohamaru's playmates, Udon. He hadn't shown up to the academy, and hasn't turned up anywhere. Keep an eye out for him, he has glasses, brown hair in a mushroom-like hairstyle, and a perpetually runny nose. Bring tissues with you, if you find him.

Udon. I seem to recall seeing him about the village a few times. I will be sure to keep a lookout for him. If you hear of anyone else, let me know.

Be careful, Iruka-sensei. It would probably not go well if you ended up here as well. Even if I wouldn't mind seeing you again.

[surf_and_turf]

Thank you, I'll let you know if I hear of any others who turn up missing as well.

Of course, though it'd be easier to avoid ending up there if I knew what caused people to end up there. Though I kind of miss you.

[in_the_field]

It appears to be different for every person. I was reading and walking, and before I knew it, I was here.

[surf_and_turf]

And you probably were so engrossed in your book that you didn't realize how you had actually ended up there, huh???

[in_the_field]

I was just walking to Ichiraku Ramen!! I didn't think I needed to pay attention! Plus Ayu-chan had just said something important!!

[surf_and_turf]

You should always pay attention, you should know that! You're a jounin, for God's sake! GAH!!! So your dirty books are more important than your own safety?!

[in_the_field]

But I didn't sense any danger, Iruka-sensei!! I promise that if that were the case, I wouldn't have been reading!

[surf_and_turf]

So...there's no danger to sense but people are disappearing with no explanation and no prior warning?

This is definitely not good.

[in_the_field]

Mmm... I'm afraid not.

However, I have heard say that there are ways out, so you needn't worry too much. I will return, Iruka-sensei.

[surf_and_turf]

Well, if there is a way out of that place, I'm sure that you'd be able to find it. Just...be careful, okay?

[in_the_field]

I promise that I will. You be care, too, Iruka-sensei. ♥

[surf_and_turf]

A-Ah...I will. ♥
