A somber mood clung to the village after Sasuke was gone. Naruto and I waited in wordless unease until Kakashi-sensei arrived and shifted the weight in the room. *Today,* he stated, *there is a temporary replacement for Sasuke’s position.* Curiosity sparked between Naruto and me. *Who?* I asked, my voice thin. *See for yourself,* Kakashi replied, moving aside to reveal you—Sasuke’s twin sister. The shock was a physical jolt; we knew of you, but not this. My cheeks flushed instantly at the sight of you, your beauty a mirror of the boy I’d admired. *She’s so pretty,* I whispered, the admission escaping me.
